The Year of Knots

"Clifford Ashley, who authored one of the definitive knot books, […] define a knot as 'any complication in a length of line.' A concise definition, to be sure, but it's also fantastically poetic and reminds me of how Tom Waits speaks about music as doing interesting things to the air. […]

"If a knot is a complication in a length of line, perhaps life is similar; a journey filled with opportunity, in the story we write for ourselves."

– Windy Chien, The Year of Knots
