I'm not even going to answer that.

Why not? It's a perfectly valid point. How can you possibly see a priceless Stradivarius instrument as merely 'a piece of wood with strings on it'?? That's like saying that the Mona Lisa is just a piece of canvas with some paint on it.

Well if you want to get technical - it is.

See, I'm not saying that art being "priceless" is wrong, or such things being on display for people to be inpired by and admire. What I am against some private collector paying £1m for a violin when there are people in the world who literally have nothing. Can you understand that?
