「Quotes」

「Try and remember that sometimes it's nice to meet people who don't know your auntie.」


「We talk about you every evening, of course. We want to know everything. I'm sure you're busy, but even if your letters were two hundred pages, they wouldn't be long enough for your mother. Take care of yourself. Love.」


「All I can say is that it will pass. Homesickness is like most sicknesses. It'll make you feel wretched, and then it'll move on to somebody else.」


「Home is home.」


「You'll feel so homesick that you'll want to die, and there's nothing you can do about it apart from endure it. But you will, and it won't kill you. And one day, the sun will come out you might not even notice straight away-it'll be that faint. And then you'll catch yourself thinking about something or someone who has no connection with the past. Someone who's only yours. And you'll realize that this is where your life is.」
