The Impractical Cabinetmaker, and ‘those people’
The Impractical Cabinetmaker (1979) was a book written by James Krenov, a Russian born, famous, fine-woodworker and philosopher. He has a lot to say about life and work, love and passion.

Reasonable Objective Therapy
has come to this - drinking and making a wish. So it seems to me that the more things change - the more they stay the same.
