Our houses are such unwieldy property that we are often imprisoned rather than housed by them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Property is theft.
Home is where you are appreciated, safe and protected, creative, and where you are loved - not where you are put in prison.
My house is my refuge, an emotional piece of architecture, not a cold piece of convenience.
I don't believe in having spaces in the home that don't get used. We pay so much for square footage that to waste it is criminal.
One of the main uses of a home is to stay in it, when one is too weak and spiritless for conforming, without effort, to the ways of other houses.
Our private property must be sacrificed.
They can't take your house and give it to the mayor's mistress, even if they pay you for it. But they can, apparently, take your house and tear it down to make room for a development of trendy shops and restaurants, a hotel and so on.
Abandoned homes become magnets for vandalism and crime. They drag down the property values of neighboring homes.
I own two beautiful homes, and I'm always half-expecting the cops to pull in, seize me with firm compassion, and escort me out.
We are victims of evil customs. It is a crime against humanity that our women are shut up within the four walls of the houses as prisoners. There is no sanction anywhere for the deplorable condition in which our women have to live.
