Alex Inglethorpe
“A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.”
Robert Frost
“Christmas is a time when you get homesick - even when you're home.”
Carol Nelson
“The worst feeling in the world is the homesickness that comes over a man occasionally when he is at home”
Edgar Watson Howe
“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 roller-coaster 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
“The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.”
Maya Angelou
