"The human desire to build labor-intensive objects for no particular utilitarian need is an incredible force. It supercedes questions of quality; it merely is. Often we make for the experience of making, and not for the finished object at all...and yet, there will often be an object at the end of the process. That object is loaded for the maker, as evidence of a goal pursued and met (or not met). More amazing still, the object lives on after the maker dies, and then loved ones must grapple with the meaning of keeping it, giving it away, or selling it."
