Put a picture of yourself as a child in view somewhere, to remind yourself to be playful.

You learn to give up what's not working and surround yourself with things you love - not what's correct or proper.

You can't be a resource for others unless you nourish yourself.

A home should be an intimate autobiography of the things that you like. One of the things I'm so keen on expressing is that, if you don't do it for yourself, if you're always seeking affirmation from outside, you'll never have a home. It'll just be a house.

We can finish a house, but never a home. Once you fall in love with a house, you find continual pleasures in fixing it up and making innovations that satisfy your creature's comforts.

I feel very strongly we are spiritual beings in a physical body, and we should make our surroundings as beautiful and soulful as possible.
