A quote just for me

As seen on The Feathered Nest:

"Nobody has the right to be bored in a half-made home. A home which is not a fair expression of us at our best, home which lacks what it might have, a home which is in any part more ugly or in any part more uncomfortable than it absolutely need be ... a home which cannot be run without waste, a home which by any detail gets on the nerves of its inhabitants and so impairs the harmony of their existence - something ought to be done about such a home ... Why not make the perfecting of the home a hobby? Your home may be a small one - most people's homes are - but you will never have finished perfecting it. The subject is vast and knows no bounds."

- Arnold Bennett
