“Luxury lies not in the richness of things, but in the absence of vulgarity”
“I love luxury. And luxury lies not in richness and ornateness but in the absence of vulgarity. Vulgarity is the ugliest word in our language. I stay in the game to fight it.”
“Some people think luxury is the opposite of poverty. It is not. It is the opposite of vulgarity.”
“How sad is it when a luxurious imagination is obliged in self defense to deaden its delicacy in vulgarity, and riot in things attainable that it may not have leisure to go mad after things which are not.”
“Morals are a luxury of the rich.”
“You gotta be rich to be insane, Hol. Losing your mind is not a luxury for the middle class.”
