-It is the beauty of things unconventional."
 --Leonard Koren
 At the core of wabi-sabi is the importance of transcending ways of looking and thinking about things/existence.
+"All sorts of attempts have been made to encapsulate the feeling: "rustic," "desolateness," or "acceptance of transience and imperfection." Unfortunately, like many philosophical concepts, wabi-sabi cannot be easily explained or translated. [...] It is a significant concept in Japanese culture, and one that can be appreciated everywhere."
