[Contact](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/contact) What are you looking for? # Book Brew 70: Quote Vault Part VI September 13, 2024 ![Picture of Danielle Price Griffin](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/31045232924d123af765cd9b1925a9ce) [Danielle Price Griffin](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/author/danielle) ![Book Brew](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/hubfs/Mindful%20Musings.jpg) As this theme is about simplicity and practicality, I will leave it to speak for itself. ## Simplicity and Practicality - **“Always make water when you can.”***Duke of Wellington, The Happiness Project, page 268*   - **“Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”***William Morris, Lagom, page 17*   - **“There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.”***Swedish Proverb, Lagom, page 87*   - **“He who agrees against his will is of the same opinion still.”***Samuel Butler, Influence, page 340*   - **“Certainty is a closing of the mind. To create something new you must have doubt.”***Milton Glaser* (repeated for its relevance in this context) ## Ponder This 1. How does simplicity influence the way you live and make decisions? 2. Which of these quotes resonates most with your current life situation, and why? 3. How can you bring more practicality into your daily routine? ### Books - The Happiness Project - Gretchen Rubin - Lagom: The Swedish Art of Balanced Living - Linnea Dunne ### Share: [Share on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/book-brew-70-quote-vault-part-vi&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook) [Share on LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/book-brew-70-quote-vault-part-vi&utm_medium=social&utm_source=linkedin) [Share on X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/book-brew-70-quote-vault-part-vi&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&url=https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/book-brew-70-quote-vault-part-vi&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Book%20Brew%2070:%20Quote%20Vault%20Part%20VI) [Book Brew](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/tag/book-brew), [Quote Vault](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/tag/quote-vault) ## Comments ## Related posts ##### Menu - [Home](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/home) - [About](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/about) - [Blog](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog) - [AI Training/Courses](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/courses) - [Fractional COO/CTO Services](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/fractional-coo/cto-services) - [Contact](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/contact) [Privacy Policy](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/privacy-policy)   |  [Terms of Use](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/en-us/terms-of-use)    |   Herndon, VA   |   703-296-9912   |   ©2022-2026 Copyright Thoughts Brewing, LLC [Follow us on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/thoughts-brewing-llc) [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.youtube.com/@thoughtsbrewingllc) [Find us on Google](https://g.co/kgs/YhpnVFp) [Find us on Yelp](https://www.yelp.com/biz/thoughts-brewing-herndon) [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/thoughtsbrewingllc) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Danielle Price Griffin", "url" : "https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/author/danielle" }, "dateModified" : "2024-09-13T12:31:00.697Z", "datePublished" : "2024-09-13T12:31:00.000Z", "headline" : "Book Brew 70: Quote Vault Part VI", "image" : [ "https://thoughtsbrewing.com/hubfs/Mindful%20Musings.jpg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/book-brew-70-quote-vault-part-vi", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://thoughtsbrewing.com/hubfs/Thoughts%20Brewing%20Logo_Round_Final_Light%20Blue_Transparent%20Background-1.png" }, "name" : "Thoughts Brewing, LLC" } } ``` ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "Organization", "address" : { "@type" : "PostalAddress", "addressCountry" : "United States of America", "addressLocality" : "Herndon", "addressRegion" : "Virginia", "postalCode" : "20170", "streetAddress" : "205 Van Buren Street, Suite 120" }, "email" : "contact@thoughtsbrewing.com", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://24461783.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/24461783/Thoughts%20Brewing%20Logo_Round_Final_Light%20Blue_Transparent%20Background-1.png" }, "name" : "Thoughts Brewing, LLC", "telephone" : "703-296-9912", "url" : "thoughtsbrewing.com" } ``` ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "abstract" : "Explore quotes on simplicity and practicality.
