Warmth isn't what minimalists are thought to have.

Summary

This quote suggests that minimalists are commonly seen as lacking warmth or emotion in their lifestyle choices. While minimalism often focuses on decluttering and simplifying one's possessions and spaces, it does not mean that minimalists lack warmth as individuals. It implies that people assume minimalists prioritize functionality over creating a cozy or inviting atmosphere. However, this quote challenges that perception and implies that minimalists can still have warmth and emotional depth in their lives, despite their preference for simplicity and minimal possessions.

The white youth of today have begun to react to the fact that the American Way of Life is a fossil of history. What do they care if their old baldheaded and crew-cut elders don't dig their caveman mops? They couldn't care less about the old, stiff-assed honkies who don't like their new dances: Frog, Monkey, Jerk, Swim, Watusi. All they know is that it feels good to swing to way-out body-rhythms instead of dragging across the dance floor like zombies to the dead beat of mind-smothered Mickey Mouse music.
