Reading is my greatest luxury.
In no way can sport be considered a luxury object.
Confronted with the choice between having time and having things, we’ve chosen to have things. Today it is a luxury to read what Socrates said, not because the books are expensive, but because our time is scarce.
I'm dreaming about making movies for eight weeks, because it's a luxury. But time is money. That's the reality.
I didn't work very much when they were young, and I had the luxury to be able to do that. Most people can't.
To speak plainly and truthfully about the state of our world - to say, for instance, that the Bible and the Koran both contain mountains of life-destroying gibberish - is antithetical to tolerance as moderates currently conceive it. But we can no longer afford the luxury of such political correctness. We must finally recognize the price we are paying to maintain the iconography of our ignorance.
Not many years ago, it was access to information and movement that seemed our greatest luxury; nowadays its often freedom from information, the chance to sit still, that feels like the ultimate prize.

To love a swamp, however, is to love what is muted and marginal, what exists in the shadows, what shoulders its way out of mud and scurries along the damp edges of what is most commonly praised. And sometimes its invisibility is a blessing.

It's such a performance to bring stuff into America. It's a great luxury when I am in England.
I don't think it ever does any harm in any business to feel that there is someone there who cares about it. If you look at any business, fashion being the most obvious, the aura, or the reality of the designer, is part of what creates it. It's true in luxury goods stores and in good food stores. It leaves a palpable sense that someone cares.
Too many?pass judgement on wartime decisions in the luxury of a peacetime environment.
For me, hard work represents the supreme luxury of life.
Though I love the luxury of the Waldorf Towers, room service there doesn't do soul food.
The media is constantly redefining what luxury is. Luxury can be a dirty sock if dressed up in the right way.
I've been trying to do my boot line for 20 years, but no one thought there could be a vegan luxury brand. So I funded this myself. I feel like it is time. I feel like young people in particular are responding to this.
