“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?”
Albert Einstein
“Whatever you own, owns you. You have to clean it, store it, fix it, worry about it, keep paying for it, insure it, and it clutters your home and mind. Plus, you have to work more to get more stuff you can't afford to buy things you don't need. Less is more FREEDOM to travel and have PEACE of mind. Collecting memorable experiences and friends is better than things.”
Lorrin L. Lee
“Three Rules of Work: Out of clutter find simplicity; From discord find harmony; In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”
“America has been a land of dreams. A land where the aspirations of people from countries cluttered with rich, cumbersome, aristocratic, ideological pasts can reach for what once seemed unattainable. Here they have tried to make dreams come true. Yet now... we are threatened by a new and particularly American menace. It is not the menace of class war, of ideology, of poverty, of disease, of illiteracy, or demagoguery, or of tyranny, though these now plague most of the world. It is the menace of unreality.”
Daniel J. Boorstin
“If your desk isn't cluttered, you probably aren't doing your job.”
Harold S. Geneen
“When you have cleared all of your clutter, you can be of greater service to those around you.”
Michael B. Kitson
“The facts of the present won't sit still for a portrait. They are constantly vibrating, full of clutter and confusion.”
William MacNeile Dixon
