The first line is from a song, and the lyrics also include they paved paradise and put up a parking lot. And that song is a good illustration of the principle I think if you listen to the lyrics. (I need to review it more carefully, and follow up on that.)

The second line pretty well defined my Dad, and I think I might have even heard him say it. (He didn't talk much as he was very deaf.) But anything that could get reused was saved. Really more of a pack rat thing, but to me it defines the concept. Although technically, it's still wasteful for people to privately keep things, even if things to be reused that would be usually thrown out, when the things can be centrally shared.
