Famous quotes containing the word homes:

    “Seems like everything people oughta know they just don’t want to hear. I guess that’s the big trouble with the world.”
    —Geoffrey Homes (1902–1977)

    “I had the idea that there were two worlds. There was a real world as I called it, a world of wars and boxing clubs and children’s homes on back streets, and this real world was a world where orphans burned orphans.... I liked the other world in which almost everyone lived. The imaginary world.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
