#clutter

"Trophies are clutter at best, and weapons at worst. I prefer my awards heavy and with handles."

"A simple life is not seeing how little we can get by with—that’s poverty—but how efficiently we can put first things first. . . . When you’re clear about your purpose and your priorities, you can painlessly discard whatever does not support these, whether it’s clutter in your cabinets or commitments on your calendar. (148)"

"Don't own so much clutter that you will be relieved to see your house catch fire."
