“In love of home, the love of country has its rise.”

“Mystery and disappointment are not absolutely indispensable to the growth of love, but they are, very often, its powerful auxiliaries.”

“When I speak of home, I speak of the place where in default of a better--those I love are gathered together; and if that place where a gypsy's tent, or a barn, I should call it by the same good name notwithstanding.”

“Love her, love her, love her! If she favours you, love her. If she wounds you, love her. If she tears your heart to pieces – and as it gets older and stronger, it will tear deeper – love her, love her, love her!”

“Every traveler has a home of his own, and he learns to appreciate it the more from his wandering.”

“If she wounds you, love her. If she tears your heart to pieces-- love her, love her, love her!”

“I love your daughter fondly, dearly, disninterestedly, devotedly. If ever there were love in the world, I love her.”
