The elegance of honesty needs no adornment.

I'm just not very interested in decoration.

Honor is but an empty bubble.

A formally harmonious product needs no decoration; it should be elevated through pure form.

I didn't have any interest in traditional art.

There is no gilding of setting sun or glamor of poetry to light up the ferocious and endless toil of the farmers' wives.

There were no temples or shrines among us save those of nature.

There is no praise to bear the sort that you put in your pocket.

Never had any idols, ever. I never had any posters, nothing.
