“Long, long journey through the darknessLong, long way to goBut what are miles across the oceanTo the heart that's coming home?”

“And the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles, no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey, a journey of one inch, very arduous and humbling and joyful, by which we arrive at the ground at our own feet, and learn to be at home.”

“An Englishman thinks a hundred miles is a long way; and American thinks a hundred years is a long time”

“It was awkward, revisiting a world you have never seen before: like coming home, after a long journey, to someone else’s house.”

“It was like coming home after you'd been gone a long, long time. It held a million promises of summer and of what just might be.”

“We are within our life and we stay there for as long as possible, that's our home. We need life. There is too much death already, and there is probably more coming our way.”
