“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”

“Fame and fortune is a magnet.
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you're never alone.
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend”

“Do not prevent jihadists from leaving our country. Let them leave, with as many friends as possible. If it helps, I am even prepared to go to Schiphol to wave them goodbye. But let them never come back. That is the condition. Good riddance. And, as far as I am concerned, anyone who expresses support for terror as a means to overthrow our constitutional democracy has to leave the country at once. If you are waving an ISIS flag you are waving an exit ticket. Leave! Get out of our country!”

Geert Wilders (1963) Dutch politician

“One minute you say you will
and the next you won't,
One minute you want me
and the next you don't,
You're turning me upside down,
Giving me the runaround,
Don't think that I don't know -
I do,
Don't think that I won't go.
You watch me:
It isn't out of question”

Gilbert O'Sullivan (1946) Irish singer-songwriter
