Famous quotes containing the words homesick, day and/or remember:
“It is a curious emotion, this certain homesickness I have in mind. With Americans, it is a national trait, as native to us as the rollercoaster or the jukebox. It is no simple longing for the home town or country of our birth. The emotion is Janus-faced: we are torn between a nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known.”
—Carson McCullers (1917–1967)
“The first day after a death, the new absence
Is always the same; we should be careful
Of each other, we should be kind
While there is still time.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Now without him,
I remember all the pleasures tasted.
The rumble of new clouds
sounds like an executioner’s drum.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
