Houses are for private living, for friends, and for dogs.
Francoise Sagan
Image
Houses are built to live in, and not to look on: therefore let use be preferred before uniformity.
Francis Bacon
Image
Houses, like people, are apt to become rather eccentric if left too much on their own this house was the architectural equivalent of an old gentleman in a worn dressing-gown and torn slippers, who got up and went to bed at odd times of day, and who kept up a continual conversation with friends no one else could see.
Susanna Clarke
Image
Houses aren't refuges from history. They are where history ends up.
Bill Bryson
Image
Houses without personality are a series of walled enclosures with furniture standing around in them. Other houses are filled with things of little intrinsic value, even with much that is shabby and yet they have that inviting atmosphere.
Emily Post
Image
Houses mean a creation, something new, a shelter freed from the idea of a cave.
Stephen Gardiner
Image
Houses are like the human beings that inhabit them.
Victor Hugo

Houses, like people, have personalities, and, like the personalities of people, they are partly molded by all that has happened to them.

Houses are like people - some you like and some you don't like - and once in a while there is one you love.

Houses are one of my passions. I probably should have been an interior decorator.
Gene Tierney

Houses turn to corpses overnight when we cease to live and love in them.
Anais Nin

Houses are built brick-by-brick. HOMEs are built word-by-word. Houses don't build themselves. So YOU must build your home.
Tara Fela-Durotoye
Image
Houses of evil similarity appeared like rows of disciplined, humiliated orphans.
Elizabeth Hardwick
Image
Houses are not haunted. We are haunted, and regardless of the architecture with which we surround ourselves, our ghosts stay with us until we ourselves are ghosts.
Dean Koontz
Image
Houses - the dark side silhouetted on flashes of moonlight!
William Carlos Williams
Image
The weird thing about houses is that they almost always look like nothing is happening inside of them, even though they contain most of our lives. I wondered if that was sort of the point of architecture.
John Green
Image
I learned a history not then written in books but one passed from generation to generation on the steps of moonlit porches and beside dying fires in one-room houses, a history of great-grandparents and of slavery and of the days following slavery of those who lived still not free, yet who would not let their spirits be enslaved.
Mildred D. Taylor
Image
It's not in our nature. Americans have never been a people that drive through a nice neighborhood and say, 'Oh, I hate the people who live in these nice houses.'
Marco Rubio
Image
The transitory interests of royal houses may be advanced in war the real interests of all people are furthered by the peace.
Kenneth Waltz
Image
The United States Congress, like a lot of rich people, lives in two houses.
John Green
Image
I had a paper route when I was a kid. I was supposed to go to 2,000 houses. Or two dumpsters.
Mitch Hedberg
Image
If our designs for private houses are to be correct, we must at the outset take note of the countries and climates in which they are built.
Marcus Vitruvius Pollio
Image
Turns out that once you kill a god, people want to talk to you. Paranormal insurance salesmen with special godslayer term life policies. Charlatan's with godproof armor and extraplanar safe houses for rent. But most notably, other gods.
Kevin Hearne
Image
You know, I've been to some superstars' houses, and I've been really disgusted when I see their platinum discs hanging in the toilet. They're just there on the walls glaring at you when you're trying to be occupied with other things.
John Lydon
