I learned a lot from working with and watching Knxwledge, seeing how he produces non-stop. He doesn't dwell too long on stuff. He's very simple, using only about two or three elements. I like that in...

I am not that attached to material things. And the good thing is I can make choices. I have very few possessions. Luckily, as a man you don't need much... a few papers, a couple of books, and a few...

Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind.

Painting picture by picture, I followed the impressions my eye took in at heightened moments. I painted only memories, adding nothing, no details that I did not see. Hence the simplicity of the...

I wash my face and put moisturiser on; I've never had a facial, and I don't get my hair or my nails done. I just do it all myself.

I actually don't shop very much. I have a tendency to rotate a few pairs of ripped jeans and an old cashmere sweater.

I never feel that my music is sparse or minimalist; the way fat people never really think they're fat. I certainly don't consider myself minimalist at all.

Here's the thing that I think about life - if you manage to get into a space where you don't need that much, where the overhead of your life is not that great and you're pretty happy and relaxed...

I don't have any of the modern stuff. I don't have e-mail. I don't have a computer!

I think less is more. Sephora has these nude themes, which is like 'no make-up' make-up.

I haven't got a credit card, a mobile phone, or a computer. Call me sentimental. I think that's a whole world of trouble I haven't got any business setting foot in. And you know what? It feels good.

America's lifestyle expectations are far too high and need to be adjusted so we have less things and a smaller, better existence.

I don't need much to be happy.

I keep things pretty simple.

When summer squash is freshly picked, all it needs is a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and maybe a hit of lemon juice.

I get out of bed, brush my teeth, wash my face, put on moisturiser, put on clothes, and leave. Four minutes. I like to shower at night so I can roll out of bed.

Keep your face clean. I don't believe in using too many products. I think that confuses your skin.

A simple lifestyle can make you happy and high expectations can disappoint a lot.

I think mascara is a must. If I'm going to wear makeup somewhere, and I'm doing it, it's usually really simple - it's just mascara and maybe a tiny bit of eyeshadow, but that's it.

I don't like precious things; I don't spend thousands of dollars on jewellery for myself. I like going into a junk store and finding something for five dollars. That's my style.

Grant me the treasure of sublime poverty: permit the distinctive sign of our order to be that it does not possess anything of its own beneath the sun, for the glory of your name, and that it have no...

I don't like rooms you never use or that are wasted space but I also like a sparseness and a cleanness.
