Life's Pleasures Quote by Kate Moss

Kate Moss turns air travel, that modern theater of discomfort and low-grade surveillance, into a tiny manifesto of refusal. The “blanket” isn’t just a soft accessory; it’s a boundary. In the compressed, fluorescent space of a plane, where your body becomes public property (elbows touching, knees negotiating, eyes asked to politely ignore), the blanket is a portable curtain: privacy you can buy, fold, and pull up to your chin.

The list form matters: “Blanket, pillow, and red wine.” It’s not wellness-speak, not a productivity hack. It’s a deliberately unglamorous ritual of sedating the self into absence. Moss, a figure long associated with a specific kind of effortless cool, is selling the opposite of hustle culture’s obsession with optimizing every minute. Sleep becomes an aesthetic and a strategy: if you’re asleep, you’re not performing sociability, not managing boredom, not surrendering to the indignities of transit. You opt out.

The red wine lands as both punchline and cultural timestamp. It nods to the pre-Instagram era’s looser relationship with jet-setting and self-medication, when “taking the edge off” didn’t have to be branded as self-care. And the kicker - “You should always be asleep on a plane” - is classic Moss: bossy, funny, and vaguely aristocratic. It reframes flight not as experience, but as something to be endured by disappearing.
