Places I will miss

"It's hard to say goodbye to the place you've lived.
It can be as hard as saying goodbye to a person."
Jonathan Safran Foer (from Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close)

"No matter how you get there or where you end up,
humans beings have this miraculous gift to make that place home." 
Creed Bratton (on the finale of The Office)
