Sasha Martin
“I don’t think the homesickness of a perpetual wanderer can ever be quenched.”
Sasha Martin, Life from Scratch: A Memoir of Food, Family, and Forgiveness

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Be ahead of all parting, as if it had already happened,
like winter, which even now is passing.
For beneath the winter is a winter so endless
that to survive it at all is a triumph of the heart.

Be forever dead in Eurydice, and climb back singing.
Climb praising as you return to connection.
Here among the disappearing, in the realm of the transient,
be a ringing glass that shatters as it rings.

Be. And, at the same time, know what it is not to be.
The emptiness inside you allows you to vibrate
in full resonance with your world. Use it for once.

To all that has run its course, and to the vast unsayable
numbers of beings abounding in Nature,
add yourself gladly, and cancel the cost.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Lionel Shriver
“If I was ever glad to have gone, I was never glad to go.”
Lionel Shriver, We Need to Talk About Kevin

John Darnielle
“In a movie version of this scene the driver wheels his glance abruptly to the window where a misshapen man stands watching it all unfold, and fixes me with a threatening look. That didn't happen.”
John Darnielle, Wolf in White Van

“Farewell, my dearest. You have but gone ahead...
but I shall follow, and run, at last, again into your arms...
and laugh away the years that came between.”
Joan Walsh Anglund, The Friend We Have Not Met: Poems of Consolation
