Years later I ran across something written by Leonardo da Vinci. He said, “The part always has a tendency to reunite with its whole in order to escape from its imperfection.” That has stuck with me ever since. It helps me rationalize paying an outrageous price for something old and rare but with glaring imperfections. Maybe it’s genetic. If so, I hope you were lucky enough to have inherited that gene. It applies to people as well as crocks, which are sometimes one in the same.
