  8. Yes, it is. There's so much of it I sometimes forget how magnificent each piece is. The time and money it took to create that are hard to imagine.

  18. Absolutely amazing how the rich live/lived. I'm reading War and Peace right now, and am struck dumb by the lifestyle of some people with a lot of money.
