A Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

It's a luxury to be understood. — © Ralph Waldo Emerson
It's a luxury to be understood.
It never really understood its own situational luxury. And I think that by and large the privilege of being Kehinde Wiley in the 21st century, making these high-priced luxury goods, traveling the world, pointing at these people, behooves me to have a point of view and to say something about it.
It is a luxury to be understood.
No logo, and you don't advertise for anyone. I don't believe in imposed luxury. I believe in built luxury. Something you refine with your own taste. Mass luxury is not my luxury.
Most brands that are called luxury brands today are not true luxury brands. The globalization of fashion and luxury means you now find the same luxury brands in every city. The stores look the same, the products are the same. It is still a very good quality product but it is now readily available to everyone. It's a kind of mass luxury.
Luxury is obviously the direction that interests me the most, but there is a lot of confusion between luxury and exhibitionism. For me, the concept of luxury is more traditional, more exclusive, more sophisticated than luxury for the masses.
That poverty is no disaster is understood by everyone who has not yet succumbed to the madness of greed and luxury that turns everything topsy-turvy.
It is a luxury to learn; but the luxury of learning is not to be compared with the luxury of teaching.
I am not trying to say that I am poor and that I don't like beautiful things. But I don't like luxury for luxury sake or in the sense of showing off luxury.
Nothing can be believed unless it is first understood; and that for any one to preach to others that which either he has not understood nor they have understood is absurd.
Luxury goods are the only area in which it is possible to make luxury margins.
Every luxury must be paid for, and everything is a luxury, starting with being in this world.
Of a life of luxury the fruit is luxury, whether in agriculture, or commerce, or literature, or art.
In luxury, ubiquity will kill you - it means you're not really luxury anymore.
I don't really have the luxury to be bitter. I don't have the luxury of having negative things in my life.
If you live in an atmosphere of luxury, luxury is yours whether your money pays for it, or another's.
The real pleasure-seeking is the combination of luxury and austerity in such a way that the luxury can really be felt.
