“Once Modern men discern that traditional things offer certain advantages, they are always tempted to say, “There is an awful lot about this I like. But I don’t like everything about it. Perhaps I can keep the parts I like and remove the parts that are distasteful and annoying.” However, if traditional things work just as well without the distasteful and unlikable parts, some sage would have removed those part a long time ago. The parts of old things that Modern men do not like are exactly what make old things work.” — Joshua Gibbs
