Henry David Thoreau was an American author, poet, naturalist, and philosopher.  Here are some of his thoughts on clothes:

• Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts
• I say beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes
• Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new
• Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends
• It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes
