When you say a word, what you care [about] is that word was perceived correctly. You don't care that the word sounded pretty when it was spoken. Music is entirely different; when you hear music, if it doesn't sound good, what's the point?
— Charles Limb
The most whopping Charles Limb quotes that will be huge advantage for your personal development
This is what we want out of our senses. We want beauty; we don't just want function.
I don't think that we should give up on beauty.

Restoration of basic sensory function is critical.
... But it's in restoration of the ability to perceive beauty where we can get inspiring.
