Famous quotes containing the words housing, benefit and/or private:

    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    The laboring man and the trade-unionist, if I understand him, asks only equality before the law. Class legislation and unequal privilege, though expressly in his favor, will in the end work no benefit to him or to society.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    To love one person with a private love is poor and miserable: to love all is glorious.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
