Knowing that Walt said "People can *feel* perfection" makes me feel so vindicated; to the people that asked me whether people would ever notice all the details I put into my work, I always responded that people can feel it and that it adds an invisible veneer to the work, and I have always been met with silent skepticism. To be honest, I was even skeptical of my own words. It feels that way to me -- but I was always skeptical as to whether it was truly universal or whether it's because I am a designer or because I designed and engineered my work.

Wow! I also don’t watch tv or movies, so idk if I’ll pick up the Bear, but I have wanted to read Unreasonable Hospitality and this essay is motivating me to pick it up!
