Woman absent
is woman dead.
-- Ambrose Bierce
1842-1914, American Author,
Editor, Journalist, ''The Devil's Dictionary''
The heart may
think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots
people out. We really have no absent friends. The friend
becomes a traitor by breaking, however unwillingly or sadly,
out of our own zone: a hard judgment is passed on him, for
all the pleas of the heart.
-- Elizabeth Bowen
1899-1973, Anglo-Irish
Novelist
