Give me something to assemble, I won't look at the directions, I'll try to figure it out by myself. It's why I love Ikea furniture. Dave Grohl
When every piece of furniture and your underwear are taken by the bank, when you lose your house in Florida, in New York, in Amsterdam and L.A., when your wife is dying and your son abandons you, you don't feel very good. Al Goldstein
Todd Gitlin quote: "Human inertia makes the everyday environment, the furniture,..."
Human inertia makes the everyday environment, the furniture, as it were, appear to be a given. Todd Gitlin
In the Scottish Orkneys, the little stone houses with their single large room and central hearth had an extraordinary range of built-in furniture. Stephen Gardiner
It is the eye of other people that ruin us. If I were blind I would want, neither fine clothes, fine houses or fine furniture. Benjamin Franklin
