Feels Like Home Quotes

1. "I've seen marvelous things, Sunday. I've looked back from the edge of the system and seen this planet, this Earth, reduced to a tiny dot of pale blue. I know what that feels like. To think that dot is where we came from, where we evolved out of the chaos and the dirt. And I know what it feels like to imagine going further. To hold that incredible, dangerous thought in my mind, if only for an instant. To think: what if I don't go home? What if I just keep traveling? Watching that pale-blue dot fall ever further away, until the darkness swallowed it and there was no turning back. Until Earth was just a blue memory."

Author: Ben Fountain

Do not ignore their cries for help, for all they wish is that you will rescue them.

I thought about it, then said, "I feel homesick." That still feels like the most accurate description - I felt homesick, but I was home."

Even after all this time in the desert and on Dartmoor. Strange, isn't it?"
