Bath twice a day to be really clean, once a day to be passably clean, once a week to avoid being a public menace.
Anthony Burgess

Anne Fadiman
Image

Virgil Goode

But I never cleaned thoroughly enough, my reorganization proved to be haphazard, the disgraces came unfailingly to light, and it was clear how we failed, how disastrously we fell short of that ideal of order and cleanliness, household decency which I as much as anybody else believed in.
Alice Munro
Image
A person who wills to have a good will, already has a good will--in its rudiments. There is solid satisfaction in knowing that the mere desire to get out of an old habit is a material advance upon the condition of submergence in that habit. The longest step toward cleanliness is made when one gains--nothing but dissatisfaction with dirt.
William Ernest Hocking
Image
Clean up a pigsty, she commented one evening, and if the creatures in it still have pig-minds and pig-desires, soon it will be the same old pigsty again.
Catherine Marshall
Image
Cleanliness is next to fordliness.
Aldous Huxley

Cleanliness in the cat world is usually a virtue put above godliness.
Carl Van Vechten
Image
Aura of the mysterious is a minor perversion that a couple shares. A fetish that one of the two partners finds arousing, or a particular sexual scenario. Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Let it be observed, that slovenliness is no part of religion that neither this, nor any text of Scripture, condemns neatness of apparel. Certainly this is a duty, not a sin. Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness.
John Wesley
Image
There's cleanliness to how I eat now. I'm much more in tune with my body, so now that I'm so in tune based on having become a semivegan, I can tell what foods affect energy levels. I can tell when I've been eating particularly high nutrient foods or I can tell when my glycemic levels are all over the place.
Alanis Morissette
Image
Cleanliness becomes more important when godliness is unlikely.
P. J. O'Rourke
Image
For some natures, changing their opinions is just as much a requirement of cleanliness as changing their clothes: for others, however, it is merely a requirement of vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
