- jacquesm 12y agoBach was humble enough and gifted enough that he didn't have to brag. I'm fairly sure he meant what he wrote when he did that. This is not DHH bitching about how he came in second in a car race with the better car. During his own time Bach was not even hailed as a great composer, his genius and contributions only gained appreciation long after he died.
