James Krenov Quotes:

Ocupation: Woodworker

Life: October 31, 1920 - September 9, 2009

Birthday: October 31

Death: September 9

Fine things in wood are important, not only aesthetically, as oddities or rarities, but because we are becoming aware of the fact that much of our life is spent buying and discarding, and buying again, things that are not good. Some of us long to have at least something, somewhere, which will give us harmony and a sense of durability—I won’t say permanence, but durability—things that, through the years, become more and more beautiful, things we can leave to our children.
