“Closets and dressers are Victorian innovations that enlightened organizers now look past. The efficient housekeeper lays his or her clothing about the floor–two or three layers deep, if necessary–allieviating the time-wasting movement of folding, hanging and stacking the clothes while forever making obsolete the cumbersome process of sweeping, mopping or vacuuming the floor surface.”

or this one, from Chapter 11, “Technology”:

“Dressers that once held clothing and personal affects are now transformed into their more perfect utilitarian role–as housing for electronic components, connectors and surveillance equipment. Leave drawers unshut at cockeyed angles so that the RCA cables and quarter-inch cords may dangle freely from their overflowing boughs like ripening grapes at a vineyard.”

Oh, and on the kitchen (Chapter 12):

“Who has the time to toil over backbreaking entrees like spaghetti, grilled cheese or Campbell’s soup? Leave those unwashed dishes to ripen for another fortnight while you and your newly-organized compatriots sample the board of fare at Nacho Mama’s. Nothing tastes as good as the Super Burrito Grande with the knowledge that a clean, tidy homeplace is waiting for your return.”

Enjoy!
