House System

These houses were named:
- Byrne (Yellow)

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or system:
“Mothers of America
let your kids go to the movies!
get them out of the house so they wont know what youre up to
its true that fresh air is good for the body
but what about the soul
that grows in darkness, embossed by silvery images”
—Frank OHara (19261966)
“In the end we beat them with Levi 501 jeans. Seventy-two years of Communist indoctrination and propaganda was drowned out by a three-ounce Sony Walkman. A huge totalitarian system ... has been brought to its knees because nobody wants to wear Bulgarian shoes.... Now theyre lunch, and were number one on the planet.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
