Luxury Goods

Famous quotes containing the words luxury and/or goods:

    This luxury of the precocious child,
    Time’s precious chronic invalid,—
    would we, darlings, resign it if we could?
    Our blight has been our sinecure:
    mere talent was enough for us—
    glitter in fragments and rough drafts.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    The power of consumer goods ... has been engendered by the so-called liberal and progressive demands of freedom, and, by appropriating them, has emptied them of their meaning, and changed their nature.
    Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922–1975)
