I am not exactly Mrs. Good Housekeeping, although I love to cook, bake, even iron, but only because it's not mandatory.

Rita Moreno

I've been put up in great hotels from a very young age, so I've been spoilt. What I can't stand is when I arrive somewhere and the room isn't ready. You call housekeeping, and it takes them three hours to get the room into shape. I'm afraid to say that the Hilton in London was not too good on that score.

Brigitte Nielsen

I was going to start a housekeeping business at one point because I'm really good at cleaning houses.

Britt Robertson

When you come to a hotel room, you want it to be grand, functional and beautiful. But you don't want things that are not useful. Sometimes you go to hotels and there are all these frames and pictures of people you don't know, and you end up hiding everything in the drawer, and then housekeeping come and put it out again.

Diane von Furstenberg

My father was a general manager with Hyatt, so we lived in the hotel so he would be close by if there were any problems. My mum was always adamant about us not abusing it. So I still had to clean my room. Housekeeping would never come and do it.

Dianna Agron

Nobody seems to know yet how television is going to affect the radio, movies, love, housekeeping or the church, but it has definitely revived vaudeville.

Edgar Bergen

There are practical little things in housekeeping which no man really understands.

Eleanor Roosevelt

The mother of a family should look upon her housekeeping and the planning of meals as a scientific occupation.

Eleanor Roosevelt

The mother cannot expect her daughter to understand the mysteries of housekeeping without education. She should instruct them patiently, lovingly, and make the work as agreeable as she can by her cheerful countenance and encouraging words of approval. If they fail once, twice, or thrice, censure not.

Ellen G. White

A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars.

Henry David Thoreau

Growing up, my two favorite books were Woody Allen's 'Side Effects' and Phyllis Diller's 'Housekeeping Hints.' I carried that Phyllis Diller book with me everywhere when I was in fifth or sixth grade. Eventually, it just fell apart.

Jill Davis

From the start, I was focused on getting the Good Housekeeping Seal. I wanted to go on TV and tell everyone that the Miracle Mop had it. Now, I can proudly say 26 of my products have been approved!

Joy Mangano

I got that experience through dating dozens of men for six years after college, getting an entry level magazine job at 21, working in the fiction department at Good Housekeeping and then working as a fashion editor there as well as writing many articles for the magazine.

Judith Krantz

I don't let housekeeping in when I stay in hotels. It cuts down on all the caustic cleaning products and aggressive water usage, and I never use the little plastic bottles of toiletries they set out.

KT Tunstall

Housekeeping ain't no joke.

Louisa May Alcott

Housekeeping is like being caught in a revolving door.

Marcelene Cox

My first novel, 'Housekeeping,' was accepted by the first agent who read it, and bought by the first editor who read it. In general, my experience with publication has been gentle and gratifying.

Marilynne Robinson

Many readers know my work first through 'Housekeeping,' simply because it was my only novel for a pretty long time.

Marilynne Robinson

The problem of the environment is the extension of good housekeeping of the thinking woman.

Marjory Stoneman Douglas

This funding from the National Endowment for the Arts has been like the Good Housekeeping seal of approval.

Norm Dicks

I like to do everything myself - I'm very hands-on with my housekeeping, my children, travelling, how I do things.

Pamela Anderson
