Last updated: Sep 5, 2024

  • The house of delusions is cheap to build but drafty to live in.

  • The Royal Family are not like you and me. They live in houses so big that you can walk round all day and never need to meet your spouse. The Queen and Prince Philip have never shared a bedroom in their lives. They don't even have breakfast together.

  • Try lighting your house by prayer instead of electricity and see which one works.

  • I sing around the house, in the shower

  • The trade magazine and all was banned in my house. The first time I read a film magazine was when I was 18.

  • He who builds a masjid in the way of Allah, God will build a house for him in the paradise.

  • I went to my friend's house one day, and he had an electric guitar he had just bought with a tiny little amp. I turned the volume up to 10 and I hit one chord, and I said, I'm in love.

  • When I got inside, I just sort of stood there. There's nothing stranger than the smell of someone else's house. The scent goes right to your stomach. Mary's house smelled like lemon furniture polish and oatmeal cookies and logs in a fireplace. For some reason it made me want to curl up in the fetal position. I could have slept right there on their kitchen table.

  • The house has to please everyone, contrary to the work of art which does not. The work is a private matter for the artist. The house is not.

  • The work of art is brought into the world without there being a need for it. The house satisfies a requirement. The work of art is responsible to none; the house is responsible to everyone. The work of art wants to draw people out of their state of comfort.
