THE VALUE OF A HOME
A man’s home is to him a shoe: anchor. It holds him more stead ily in a storm than if he were homeless. It holds him because it contains the things he has worked for, saved for, and lived for. It is not particularly the value that holds; a man may have 10 times its cost in a bank or in securities. The supreme value of a home is an intangible thing, a thing of power, a thing that holds a man as an anchor holds a ship.
