Leonard Koren Quotes

Whether it's trying to convince others that something is more true, more virtuous, or more desirable--all communication is rhetoric in action.

Leonard Koren

Things wabi-sabi have no need for the reassurance of status or the validation of market culture. They have no need for documentation of provenance. Wabi-sabi-ness in no way depends on knowledge of the creator's background or personality. In fact, it is best if the creator is no distinction, invisible, or anonymous.
