House Sold

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or sold:

    The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.
    Kahlil Gibran (1883–1931)

    This death’s livery which walled its bearers from ordinary life was sign that they have sold their wills and bodies to the State: and contracted themselves into a service not the less abject for that its beginning was voluntary.
    —T.E. (Thomas Edward)
