Quote

We are material creatures who spend much of our lives on material pursuits (even building a cathedral or writing a novel requires stone and mortar or paper and ink).

We live in a materialist world, and materialism appeals so strongly to humanity, no matter where.

We are such materialists that all our metaphors are going to be material.

Well, we're living in a material world, and I'm a material girl... or boy.

Each of us is a spirit in material form.

The biggest things in life are not materials.

As human beings, we're very materialistic and have all this stuff - furs and cars and diamonds and money.

I don't think I am that materialistic, actually. Obviously at home in the country the art collection is important, but we have one big room in the middle of the house where we do everything - the television, the kitchen, everything.

We're more into sort of fluid structures that are simultaneously the most efficient, the most beautiful, and the most engineered. You know what I mean? We like the balance you can get in there.

If we have authentic, honest, earthy materials in our houses, we'll be more authentic, honest and natural.
