A Quote by Sam Potts

It’s been far too long since I did anything creative for absolutely no reason. This little piece was inspired by a quote I recently read on Swiss Cheese and Bullets. The quote itself is by a chap named Sam Potts.

Things I Love

There are a couple of detail shots over at Flickr for anyone that might be interested.

The quote in full:

I love that there can be an art to nearly everything.
I love that geometry is ancient.
I love that Frank Lloyd Wright was shameless.
I love that the littlest things can make biggest differences, like cufflinks or a pinch of salt or just 5 minutes.
I love that some things are inexplicable, in fact more things than you’expect.
I love that no expertise is needed to appreciate a well-made thing.
This.
I love that you can pretty much always assume there is a better way.
I love that anything can seem new.
I love that a computer is referred to as a machine.
I love Chengdu and Hanoi and Lhasa.
I love that music doesn’t have to mean anything to be beautiful.
I love that there are theories about handwriting, the composition of matter, and horse racing. I love the knuckleball.
I love the lightbulb joke about how many boring people.
I love that the things worth remembering are usually the things that get remembered.
I love the moment at dusk when the F train comes out of the tunnel after Carroll St. and fills with golden sunset light and feels like a cathedral.
I love the slow motion replay.
I love the way that hat looks on you.
I love that Japanese architects deliberately inserted mistakes into their designs to appease the gods, who believe only they are perfect.
I love that the heart is a muscle.
I love the simplicity of punctuation.
I love the Radiator Building, the Queensboro Bridge, and summertime.
That perfect swing.
I love that line about how memory is like a train.
I love that anything is interesting if you look at it closely enough.
I love that even a cheap hamburger is still pretty good.
