The examples of vice at home corrupt us more quickly and easily than others, since they steal into our minds under the highest authority.
- Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
Home Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Home

1.
I live in my house as I live inside my skin: I know more beautiful, more ample, more sturdy and more picturesque skins: but it would seem to me unnatural to exchange them for mine.
Levi, Primo

2.
There is room in the smallest cottage for a happy loving pair.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

3.
Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country.
Thatcher, Margaret

4.
If I were asked to name the chief benefit of the house, I should say: the house shelters day-dreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace.
Bachelard, Gaston

5.
Luxuries are never so comfortable as are the familiar, ordinary things of home.
Eucharista Ward

6.
It matters less to a person where they are born than where they can live.
Proverb, Turkish

7.
Woman, the more careful she is about her face, the more careless about her house.
Johnson, Ben

8.
A comfortable house is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience.
Smith, Sydney

9.
A house means a family house, a place specially meant for putting children and men in so as to restrict their waywardness and distract them from the longing for adventure and escape they've had since time began.
Duras, Marguerite

10.
Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration.
Dickens, Charles

11.
A man's homeland is wherever he prospers.
Aristophanes

12.
A man's home is his wife's castle.
Chase, Alexander

13.
My home is not a place, it is people.
Lois McMaster Bujold

14.
He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

15.
It is the personality of the mistress that the home expresses. Men are forever guests in our homes, no matter how much happiness they may find there.
Wolfe, Elsie De

16.
The examples of vice at home corrupt us more quickly and easily than others, since they steal into our minds under the highest authority.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

17.
Home is the place where we are treated the best, but grumble the most.

18.
Estate agents. You can't live with them, you can't live with them. The first sign of these nasty purulent sores appeared round about 1894. With their jangling keys, nasty suits, revolting beards, moustaches and tinted spectacles, estate agents roam the land causing perturbation and despair. If you try and kill them, you're put in prison: if you try and talk to them, you vomit. There's only one thing worse than an estate agent but at least that can be safely lanced, drained and surgically dressed. Estate agents. Love them or loathe them, you'd be mad not to loathe them.
Fry, Stephen

19.
We should come home from adventures, and perils, and discoveries every day with new experience and character.
Thoreau, Henry David

20.
People usually are the happiest at home.
Shakespeare, William

21.
In the matter of furnishing, I find a certain absence of ugliness far worse than ugliness.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

22.
A house is a machine for living in.
Corbusier, Le

23.
The place is very well and quiet and the children only scream in a low voice.
Byron, Lord

24.
A hundred men may make an encampment, but it takes a woman to make a home.
Proverb, Chinese

25.
Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments.
Pollock, Channing

26.
A house that does not have one worn, comfy chair in it is soulless.
May Sarton

27.
If men lived like men indeed, their houses would be temples -- temples which we should hardly dare to injure, and in which it would make us holy to be permitted to live; and there must be a strange dissolution of natural affection, a strange unthankfulness for all that homes have given and parents taught, a strange consciousness that we have been unfaithful to our fathers honor, or that our own lives are not such as would make our dwellings sacred to our children, when each man would fain build to himself, and build for the little revolution of his own life only.
Ruskin, John

28.
Owning your own home is America's unique recipe for avoiding revolution and promoting pseudo-equality at the same time. To keep citizens puttering in their yards instead of sputtering on the barricades, the government has gladly deprived itself of billions in tax revenues by letting home owners deduct mortgage interest payments.
King, Florence

29.
There is no sanctuary of virtue like home.
Everett, Edward

30.
One returns to the place one came from.
La Fontaine, Jean De

31.
The house a woman creates is a Utopia. She can't help it -- can't help trying to interest her nearest and dearest not in happiness itself but in the search for it.
Duras, Marguerite

32.
Home interprets heaven. Home is heaven for beginners.
Parkhurst, Charles H.

33.
The fellow that owns his own home is always just coming out of a hardware store.
Hubbard, Kin

34.
Home is any four walls that enclose the right person.
Rowland, Helen

35.
The worst feeling in the world is the homesickness that comes over a man occasionally when he is at home.
Howe, Edgar Watson

36.
Home -- that blessed word, which opens to the human heart the most perfect glimpse of Heaven, and helps to carry it thither, as on an angel's wings.
Child, Lydia M.

37.
A man's home may seem to be his castle on the outside; inside, it is more often his nursery.
Luce, Clare Boothe

38.
My home...It is my retreat and resting place from wars, I try to keep this corner as a haven against the tempest outside, as I do another corner in my soul.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

39.
The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail -- its roof may shake -- the wind may blow through it -- the storm may enter -- the rain may enter -- but the King of England cannot enter! -- all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement!
Chatham, William Pitt The Elder, Lord

40.
Nothing annoys a woman more than to have company drop in unexpectedly and find the house looking as it usually does.
Dane, Frank

41.
He makes his home where the living is best.
Proverb, Latin

42.
It is, indeed, at home that every man must be known by those who would make a just estimate either of his virtue or felicity; for smiles and embroidery are alike occasional, and the mind is often dressed for show in painted honor, and fictitious benevolence.
Johnson, Samuel

43.
Life's a voyage that's homeward bound.
Herman Melville

44.
Not going home is already like death.
E. Catherine Tobler

45.
You are a king by your own fireside, as much as any monarch in his throne.
Cervantes, Miguel De

46.
Home is a place not only of strong affections, but of entire unreserved; it is life's undress rehearsal, its backroom, its dressing room, from which we go forth to more careful and guarded intercourse, leaving behind us much debris of cast-off and everyday clothing.
Stowe, Harriet Beecher

47.
Construed as turf, home just seems a provisional claim, a designation you make upon a place, not one it makes on you. A certain set of buildings, a glimpsed, smudged window-view across a schoolyard, a musty aroma sniffed behind a garage when you were a child, all of which come crowding in upon your latter-day senses -- those are pungent things and vivid, even consoling. But to me they are also inert and nostalgic and unlikely to connect you to the real, to that essence art can sometimes achieve, which is permanence.
Ford, Richard

48.
Our country is where ever we are well off.
Milton, John

49.
Were I Diogenes, I would not move out of a kilderkin into a hogshead, though the first had had nothing but small beer in it, and the second reeked claret.
Lamb, Charles

50.
Where thou art, that is home.
Dickinson, Emily
