About This Quote
If something is too perfect, I don't want it. The way things are supposed to be is not always the way they need to be, and sometimes we can do too much to make them perfect. If something is too clean, I don't want it. I like things with a little grit and dirt.
If it's too polished, I don't want it. A little bit of roughness makes things more interesting.
