Quotes About House

I don't like my voice that much. I think I'm a much better actress than singer. Singing is like going to a party at someone else's house. Acting is like having the party at your own house. When you go to someone else's house for a party, it's not your responsibility at all, but when you have the party at your own house, there's a lot of responsibility. Everyone has to have a good time. So for me, acting is deeper.

I started spinning house and R&B. I was taught how to DJ from house producers, so it was mostly house music in the beginning. But then sometimes people can get a little tired of hearing the same four-four beats all the time, so if you throw a little R&B in there as well, it gives people a little breather. That's the way I was DJing then when I learned how to spin. That was my introduction to house music in general, which was eye opening for sure.

When your house contains such a complex of piping, flues, ducts, wires, lights, inlets, outlets, ovens, sinks, refuse disposers, hi-fi re-verberators, antennae, conduits, freezers, heaters -when it contains so many services that the hardware could stand up by itself without any assistance from the house, why have a house hold it up.

Scripts are a house of cards and you can't just reach in the middle and pull out the middle card because the house of cards will fall down.

How many times do you hear, "No, that doesn't make sense," or "Why would this happen?" That was a mistake.

A man's house burns down. The smoking wreckage represents only a ruined home that was dear through years of use and pleasant associations.

When you're looking for a house, you're not looking for a house that's perfect. You're looking for that house to have character.
