5.People are living longer than ever before, a phenomenon undoubtedly made necessary by the 30-year mortgage. Doug Larson

Good start. Haroula!

7. I want a house that has got over all its troubles; I don't want to spend the rest of my life bringing up a young and inexperienced house. ~ Jerome K. Jerome

1.A house without books is like a room without windows. No man has a right to bring up his children without surrounding them with books, if he has the means to buy them. -Horace Mann

3. Do you know what it means to come home at night to a woman who'll give you a
little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means you're in the
wrong house, that's what it means. ~Henry Youngman (aka Henny Youngman )

(love the cryptograms - thanks UW!)

All good, and bonus points for spotting the deliberate mistake, Sondi!

6. Nothing annoys a woman more than to have company drop in unexpectedly and find the house looking as it usually does. ~Frank Dane

Sounds a bit like our house, manxman - you wipe your feet on the way out...

Dead man talking.

10. There's nothing to match curling up with a good book when there's a repair job to be done around the house. ~Joe Ryan

9. It always amazes me to think that every house on every street is full of so many stories; so many triumphs and tragedies, and all we see are yards and driveways. ~ Glenn Close

2. I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows stuffed. I want the cultures of all the land to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

4. There are things you just can't do in life. You can't beat the phone company, you can't make a waiter see you until he's ready to see you, and you can't go home again. ~Bill Bryson
