Something I didn't even know was on my bucket list has been achieved. I have cooked Thanksgiving dinner with Martha Stewart. I vow to follow the gospel of her teachings and do my very best in the remarkably less glamorous kitchen of my own home... without the luxury of magically appearing prep bowls filled by a staff of sous chefs.

War has become a luxury that only small nations can afford.

I don't have the luxury of having a dog myself because I travel too much but I love walking and cuddling somebody else's dog.

Luxury is the wolf at the door and its fangs are the vanities and conceits germinated by success. When an artist learns this he knows where the danger is.

Many baseball fans look upon an umpire as a sort of necessary evil to the luxury of baseball like the odor that follows an automobile.

Nowadays you really have to pump out that blockbuster in order to have the luxury of getting a body of work and that's sad because the work suffers. Today everything is based on money. The older actors they inspire me.

It's a luxury to be able to tell a long form story. I love novels and I love to have a long relationship with characters.

Too many people in the modern world view poetry as a luxury not a necessity like petrol. But to me it's the oil of life.

It's easy to sit in relative luxury and peace and pontificate on the subject of the Third World debts.

It's such a luxury to be able to be happy about going to work in the morning.
