House guests should be regarded as perishables: Leave them out too long and they go bad.
I have a large collection of town cars because when I was just a snipe in the gutter, growing up in Los Angeles, a town car drove by. I remember running in the house to get my mother so she could see it. It was utterly magnificent.
I was never invited to the White House. They invited that Olympic Russian gymnast - that little Communist, Olga Korbut.
A house cannot be made habitable in a day; and, after all, how few days go to make up a century.
The room has to be comfortable; the house has to look habitable.
The whole cast of 'Company' was invited to Hal Prince's house. This is one of the highlights of my life. We all sat in the living room. Sitting on the floor, I was right by the piano.
Clinton left the White House with all the class of an XFL halftime show.
I was brought up in a tenement house in a working district. We didn't even have a bathroom! We had a gaslight in the hallway and a black-and-white TV.
Instead of just hammering away at a song, I'll approach it from a million other angles. Sometimes I'll leave all my equipment set up and just turn on the TV for five minutes; sometimes I've gotta get out of the house. I don't think it every really leaves my head.
I'd love to tackle a classic Shakespeare play or take on Nora Helmer in 'A Doll's House.' Musical theater, it's the classics like Rodgers and Hammerstein and Cole Porter's 'Kiss Me Kate.' I'm much more a Julie Andrews-type soprano than an Idina Menzel.
My goal involves a hammock, a vegetable patch, and a solar-powered house. And I hope to eventually get there.
I'll see a celadon green room in an 18th century New Hampshire house and just fall in love. Colors stay in my head.
My wife and I got engaged in New Hampshire at this lake house that her family's had forever, and it's on Lake Winnipesaukee. And so we went there every summer as we were dating.
Martha Stewart has two houses in East Hampton. She has an old fashioned Victorian house and a very new modern house.
I didn't expect to be so comfortable handing my child off to a nanny without getting any of her information. As soon as she arrived at my house, I threw my baby in her arms and went to Target.
'Tis ill talking of halters in the house of a man that was hanged.
Most Americans haven't had my happy experience of living for thirteen years in a seventeenth-century house, since most of America lacks seventeenth-century houses.
My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone.
I get double-takes at the hardware store. I've had people say, 'I didn't know you did this.' With a celebrity, if folks don't see you, they think all you do is stay in the house.
I am into belly dancing. I used to only hang with comics. Now I have friends who are dancers, and my whole house has a harem feel.
