“Perhaps your hunger to belong is always active and intense because you belonged so totally before you came here. This hunger to belong is the echo and reverberation of your invisible heritage. You are from somewhere else, where you were known, embraced and sheltered. This is also the secret root from which all longing grows. Something in you knows, perhaps remembers, that eternal belonging liberates longing into its surest and most potent creativity. This is why your longing is often wiser than your conventional sense of appropriateness, safety and truth... Your longing desires to take you towards the absolute realization of all the possibilities that sleep in the clay of your heart; it knows your eternal potential, and it will not rest until it is awakened.”
John O'Donohue
“It was long since I had longed for anything and the effect on me was horrible.”
Samuel Beckett“You are the Poem I dreamed of writing, the Masterpiece I longed to paint. You are the shining Star I reached for in my ever hopeful quest for life fulfilled. Yes, I am Blessed.”
Oksana Rus“Just one look and then I knew that all I longed for long ago was you”
Elizabeth Berg, Dream When You're Feeling Blue“The only education in grief that any of us ever gets is a crash course. Until Caroline had died I had belonged to that other world, the place of innocence, and linear expectations, where I thught grief was a simple, wrenching realm of sadness and longing that graduallu receded. What that definition left out was the body blow that loss inflicts, as well as the temporary madness, and a range of less straightforward emotions shocking in their intensity.”
Gail Caldwell, Let's Take the Long Way Home: A Memoir of Friendship“All my life I have longed to be alone in a place like this. Even when everything was going well, as it often did. I can say that much. That it often did. I have been lucky. But even then, for instance in the middle of an embrace and someone whispering words in my ear I wanted to hear, I could suddenly get a longing to be in a place where there was only silence. Years might go by and I did not think about it, but that does not mean that I did not long to be there. And now I am here, and it is almost exactly as I had imagined it.”
Per Petterson, Out Stealing Horses“Till then I wasn't alive, I longed for you like the love sick moon pulls the tide”
Corinne Bailey Rae“I've longed for you so, while my connection to the rest of reality has torn. It is that you have lost me. And I have lost you, longing for more than my enough.”
Brandi Gomez, No War Is Anyone's War“In some cases, people with a body (whose size) they did not long for are victims of having a bank balance (whose size) they longed for.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana“Ah, Hannah, you have never longed to live as I long to live if you do not know that another day is the most precious thing.”
