The more simple my life is, the happier I am.
I have personal issues with clutter. I, personally, am very minimalist and like a clean slate. I like to throw everything away.
My wife would probably say I'm the messiest person in the history of husbands.
Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough.
I'm known as tidy, I like to keep my stuff in order.
We would all like to be able to live an uncluttered life, a simple life, a good life.
I'm going through an evolution. I'm completely cleaning out my closet. I'm purging, because I saw that show 'Hoarders.' I had a sweatshirt from sixth grade, and I'm going, 'Why do I hold on to this?'
I believe designers should eliminate the unnecessary. That means eliminating everything that is modish because this kind of thing is only short-lived.
I have very tidy cupboards. I do like a cupboard to look nice when you open it, with the labels facing forward.
Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.
I've started making my wardrobe a uniform: I find that the fewer options I have, the better my state of mind.
The more messes you allow into your life, the more messes will become a normal (and acceptable) part of your life.
I'm so unmaterialistic in every way. If you saw my apartment, it would explain a lot, I think. It's not so much a mess, but it just needs to have some feng shui or a real 'Queer Eye' makeover or whatever.
Our life is frittered away by detail... simplify, simplify.
Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that's a consequence of simplicity. Simplicity is somehow essentially describing the purpose and place of an object and product. The absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. That's not simple.
I've been a minimalist my whole life, even if you wouldn't know it from my office.
We have a passion for keeping things simple.
The absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. That's not simple.
To be creative, first I need to be really organized. If my apartment's messy I need to clean it. It's like before you start doing your homework or studying for a test, you have to have a clean room.
I've always liked simplicity.
Happiness is a very small desk and a very big wastebasket.
The objective of cleaning is not just to clean, but to feel happiness living within that environment.
I love simplicity.
Then there's the joy of getting your desk clean, and knowing that all your letters are answered, and you can see the wood on it again.
The inside of a house or apartment after decluttering has much in common with a Shinto shrine... a place where there are no unnecessary things, and our thoughts become clear.
