Famous quotes containing the words home, buyer, mortgage and/or program:
“Your home is regarded as a model home, your life as a model life. But all this splendor, and you along with it ... it’s just as though it were built upon a shifting quagmire. A moment may come, a word can be spoken, and both you and all this splendor will collapse.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
“It means eating your words, this thing of refusing to be a fence-sitter, but I’d rather eat my words than get calluses from sitting.
No one who has not experienced the condescension of a buyer toward an ordinary salesgirl can have any conception of its withering effect.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“The mortgage is still in our name but, increasingly, the house is theirs. One diaper, one vote.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“But one day he met a man who was a whole lot badder,
And now he’s dead, and we ain’t none the sadder.”
—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
