Better one's House be too little one day than too big all the Year after.

At a certain point, if you still have your marbles and are not faced with serious financial challenges, you have a chance to put your house in order. It's a cliche, but it's underestimated as an analgesic on all levels. Putting your house in order, if you can do it, is one of the most comforting activities, and the benefits of it are incalculable.

The argument for getting our own house in order is not an argument for turning our back on the world. We cannot and should not do that.

The best time to buy a home is always five years ago.

Getting your house in order and reducing the confusion gives you more control over your life. Personal organization some how releases or frees you to operate more effectively.

What does a house want to be?

Someday, I'll make the right connection with the house I'm meant to be in.

If the house is to be set in order, one cannot begin with the present; he must begin with the past.

Your house is all about routine, not the unexpected events of your life.

Order is the sanity of the mind, the health of the body, the peace of the city, the security of the state. Like beams in a house or bones to a body, so is order to all things.
