Acceptance is not love. You love a person because he or she has lovable traits, but you accept everybody just because they're alive and human. ↗

There is a lovable quality about the actual tools. One feels so kindly to the thing that enables the hand to obey the brain. Moreover, one feels a good deal of respect for it; without it the brain and the hand would be helpless. ↗

— Gertrude Jekyll
