    There is something in this native land business and you cannot get away from it, in peace time you do not seem to notice it much particularly when you live in foreign parts but when there is a war and you are all alone and completely cut off from knowing about your country well then there it is, your native land is your native land, it certainly is.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.
