Real Estate Bubbles

Famous quotes containing the words real, estate and/or bubbles:

    That is the real pivot of all bourgeois consciousness in all countries: fear and hate of the instinctive, intuitional, procreative body in man or woman. But of course this fear and hate had to take on a righteous appearance, so it became moral, said that the instincts, intuitions and all the activities of the procreative body were evil, and promised a reward for their suppression. That is the great clue to bourgeois psychology: the reward business.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Never let the estate decrease in your hands. It is only by such resolutions as that that English noblemen and English gentlemen can preserve their country. I cannot bear to see property changing hands.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    It is snowing and death bugs me
    as stubborn as insomnia.
    The fierce bubbles of chalk,
    the little white lesions
    settle on the street outside.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
