“The world of Mark Twain seems so very far away from us. Today that half-wild innocent America of his childhood memories is a lost continent, sunk forever under those arid deserts of asphalt, those oceans of poison sludge, those mountains of technological garbage which are the monuments of the human dilemma we like to call progress. It’s nice though to catch a glimpse of things as they used to be... a landscape painted in words to bring us back for a moment, to that early morning of the American day so blithe and free when we were still on speaking terms with Mother Earth.”

“It would be an account of love and duty, not just anger and hatred, and it would be filled with dreams, and the memory of having once looked to the future, and an eagerness to dream again. It would be boring, because you simply had to be there. It would be poetry and not history. ...the deep ambivalence you once felt toward a song that now devastated you...the look when someone recognizes you. I'm going to write about all this one day, I told her, and she smiled at me.”

“18. yüzyılın ruh sağlığına ilgi duyan hekimleri sıla özlemini ve evden uzakta, gurbette olmanın acısını "nostalgia" kavramıyla ifade etmişlerdir. Bu sözcük 1688'de ilk defa kullanılmış ve daha çok evlerinden uzaktaki çökkün paralı askerlerde tanımlanmıştır. Bulgular ve teşhis, neden ve tedavi üzerine tezler kaleme alınmış; sonunda en iyi tedavinin nostus (eve dönüş) olduğunda fikir birliğine varılmıştır.”
