“When you become homeless, there are two things involved.

Either the system sees you, or it refuses to.

If it sees you, there are two things involved:

Either it helps you, or it delays you.

If it delays you, there are two things involved:

Either you survive the wait, or you don’t.

And if you don't survive the wait

there is only one thing involved:

Hell.”
