What is that saying? Meaning imprefections is the beauty?
IE- the crack in the liberty bell; the imperfection is what makes it specail/beautiful. Wasabi maubi? Something like that? What was it and what does it come from?

I'm not certain about a saying connected to it, but I believe the aesthetic philosophy you're referring to is wabi-sabi, a Japanese sense of aesthetics that finds beauty in imperfect and common things. The wabi-sabi worldview conceptualizes everything as either evolving out of or devolving towards nothingness, thus incompleteness and imperfection are part of the essence of this dynamic, cyclical process.

The liberty bell is cracked?! You’re kidding, right?
I believe the correct saying is èµ·ããªããããå¥è·¡ã£ã¦è¨ããã§ãã(uh, o-hi-o, wasabi asha shise'a sush ma shum basushi), which loosely translated means “old shoe full of wasabi makes toes green and itchy”. I like this one too: “perfection is attained, not when no more can be added, but when no more can be remove.”
