In the bad old days, men kept women from choosing to work. In the bad new days, women keep women from choosing to stay home Picture Quote #1

I had walked along that street all my life, but had never been so aware that my back was to my home Picture Quote #1

Anna, falling in love with you was like coming home to a place I didn’t realize I’d been missing all my life. You’re the only person I’ve ever known who accepts me for who I am, right in this moment, faults and all, and isn’t waiting for me to become someone else Picture Quote #1

For me a house or an apartment becomes a home when you add one set of four legs, a happy tail, and that indescribable measure of love that we call a dog Picture Quote #1

That evening, rowing on the quiet river as sunset turned to dusk, I saw an occasional smoky smudge on the towpath, always slightly ahead of me, like a dark star guiding me home Picture Quote #1

The girl she said, I didn’t tell you this because it was a small thing, but little girls, they leave their hearts at home when they walk outside. Hearts are so precious. They don’t want to lose them Picture Quote #1

The wise man belongs to all countries, for the home of a great soul is the whole world Picture Quote #1

Home is where the heart is or where you bury the ones you want to eat later Picture Quote #1

All of a sudden I didn’t fit in anywhere. Not at school, not at home... and every time I turned around, another person I’d known forever felt like a stranger to me. Even I felt like a stranger to me Picture Quote #1

I’ve often thought it unfair that women are expected to stay at home when there’s a fight to be won. If a woman has the strength to bear a child, she can swing a sword as well as any man Picture Quote #1

Children don’t need learning. They need access to what they want to learn outside the home Picture Quote #1

He just put his hand through the bulkhead, exactly as she’d done, and squeezed my shoulder. He has very strong fingers. And he kept his hand there the whole way home, even when he was reading the map and giving me headings. So I am not flying alone now after all Picture Quote #1

Whereas the tourist generally hurries back home at the end of a few weeks or months, the traveler belonging no more to one place than to the next, moves slowly over periods of years, from one part of the earth to another. Indeed, he would have found it difficult to tell, among the many places he had lived, precisely where it was he had felt most at home Picture Quote #1

If a man isn’t being nice when you’re out, all you have to do is remain polite and then go home early Picture Quote #1

I never met an addict who came from a nice home. I’ve met addicts that came from families that had money and nice houses. But never from a nice home Picture Quote #1

So your father told you once that you were his princess you won’t see the castle you cannot find your prince and now you’ve grown a lot and your dress don’t fit right your daddy’s not a hero he stole your chariot so here you are in pieces trying to prove to us it’s real the softness of your smile and the lies you want to feel the scales beneath your skin are showing off today there’s evil in your heart and it wants out to play there’s evil in your heart and it wants out to play there’s evil in your heart and I have made a home here for me you’ll burn it down with your fantasy Picture Quote #1

This is home and home is not something you remember, it is something you see every day and every moment Picture Quote #1

You have your whole life ahead of you. Be smart. Study hard and be independent. I’m afraid the chances of your getting a dowry are slim. You must rely on yourself. No matter what else people may steal from you, they will never be able to take away your knowledge. The world is changing. You must make your own life outside this home Picture Quote #1

This misfortune you find is of your own manufacture. Keep hold of what you have, it will harm no other, for hatred comes home to the hand that chose it Picture Quote #1

Twelve thousand miles of it, to the other side of the world. And whether they came home again or not, they would belong neither here, nor there, for they would have lived on two continents and sampled two different ways of life Picture Quote #1

Half an ear cocked, something in me, all night, every night, is waiting for you to come home Picture Quote #1

Each time you meet an old emotional pattern with presence, your awakening to truth can deepen. There’s less identification with the self in the story and more ability to rest in the awareness that is witnessing what’s happening. You become more able to abide in compassion, to remember and trust your true home. Rather than cycling repetitively through old conditioning, you are actually spiraling toward freedom Picture Quote #1

Their tongues met, starving, two years without this delicious meal. They kissed and kissed and kissed. The joining of their mouths was more intense than that night on the ferry. This was a kiss of reunion. Of forgiveness. Of coming home Picture Quote #1

When he was in school he longed to be out, and when he was out he longed to be in. On the way he thought about coming home, and coming home he thought about going. Wherever he was he wished he were somewhere else, and when he got there he wondered why he’d even bothered Picture Quote #1

Betsy. The great war is on but I hope ours is over. Please come home. Joe Picture Quote #1

Life is only worth living because we hope it will get better and we’ll all get home safely. But you tried and you did not get home safely. You did not get home at all Picture Quote #1

Making women the sexual gatekeepers and telling men they just can’t help themselves not only drives home the point that women’s sexuality is unnatural, but also sets up a disturbing dynamic in which women are expected to be responsible for men’s sexual behavior Picture Quote #1

She had sacrificed her childhood to save her brothers; she loved her family above all else, and her spirits yearned to return home once more, to the wild forest and the land of mystic tales and ancient spirits whence he had taken her. That was the place of her heart, and if he loved her, he must let her go Picture Quote #1

All right people, listen up! If you’ve got a family back home waiting for you or if you just want to save your own skin, turn around and walk away. Also, women! I have no intention of fighting any women! Picture Quote #1

Exile is strangely compelling to think about but terrible to experience. It is the unhealable rift forced between a human being and a native place, between the self and its true home: its essential sadness can never be surmounted. And while it is true that literature and history contain heroic, romantic, glorious, even triumphant episodes in an exile’s life, these are no more than efforts meant to overcome the crippling sorrow of estrangement Picture Quote #1
