Return to Gone-Away Quotes

“No matter how old a person gets, he's never old in spring!”
― Elizabeth Enright, Return to Gone-Away

“Gradually people began to speak of the place as Amberside, though there were a few diehards who never stopped calling it Villa Caprice, or, as in the case of Eli Scaynes, the Villa Cay-priss. But Julian and Joe and Tom and Lucy and Davey never called it anything but "the Blake's house"; and Portia and Foster never called it anything but "home." All their lives they knew that one of the best things that ever happened to them was to be able to call it that.”
― Elizabeth Enright, Return to Gone-Away
