Nothing makes the earth seem so spacious as to have friends at a distance; they make the latitudes and longitudes.
A thousand miles seems pretty far, but they’ve got planes and trains and cars. I’d walk to you if I had no other way.
I’m never sad when a friend goes far away, because whichever city or country that friend goes to, they turn the place friendly.They turn a suspicious-looking name on the map into a place where a welcome can be found.
I don’t cry because we’ve been separated by distance, and for a matter of years. Why? Because for as long as we share the same sky and breathe the same air, we’re still together.
A strong friendship doesn’t need daily conversation, doesn’t always need togetherness, as long as the relationship lives in the heart, true friends will never part.
The people who are meant to be in your life will always gravitate back towards you, no matter how far they wander.
No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other’s worth.
There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound.
You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That’s the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.
