“Home is not where you live but where they understand you.”
“Live earnestly by turns without despair,
Nor seek a home till home be every where!”
Life Without and Life Within (1859), The One In All
Context: I only know one prayer — "Give me the truth,
Give me that colored whiteness, ancient youth,
Complex and simple, seen in joy and ruth.Let me not by vain wishes bar my claim,
Nor soothe my hunger by an empty name,
Nor crucify the Son of man by hasty blame.But in the earth and fire, water and air,
Live earnestly by turns without despair,
Nor seek a home till home be every where!"
