About This Quote
As I write, My fingers tap tap the keys the way Ravi Shankar's fingers pluck and strum the strings of his sitar. This is a beautiful quote by legendary musician Ravi Shankar when he wrote about his love for music when he was in his teen, and when he describes what he does when he writes. He describes that every time he puts down the pen and picks it up again, tapping like a sitar with his fingers on the keyboard. Nowadays, we use touch screens and keyboards with special keys to make typing easier. But, we never stop tapping on them with our fingers.
