Hearth Quotes

“My question is, how do we maintain that central fixture in the home? It kept the home warm, heated water for the bath, and cooked our food. And the family gathered around the hearth, played music, talked, told stories. You don’t see families gathering around a microwave.”

“We can find scraps of magic anywhere we look, tiny threads and fabric patches and buttons without matches. Allow a circle of space for that quiet magic to find you. That is your center, your home. Return to it when you need it. Find it again, name it your hearth, and wherever you are you’ll be home.”

“And so (We) made our way home. That’s what you do when you run out of options: you go home. Ask a failed college student or a new mother whose partner disappears.

“...we do not lend the hearth quite the importance that our ancestors did, Greek or otherwise. Yet, even for us, the word stands for something more than just a fireplace. We speak of 'hearth and home'. The word 'hearth' shares its ancestry with 'heart', just as the modern Greek for 'hearth' is kardia, which also means 'heart'. In Ancient Greece the wider concept of hearth and home was expressed by the oikos, which lives on for us today in economics and ecology. The Latin for hearth is focus - with speaks for itself. It is a strange and wonderful thing that out of the words for fireplace we have spun "cardiologist', 'deep focus' and 'eco-warrior'. The essential meaning of centrality that connects them also reveals the great significance of the hearth to the Greeks and Romans, and consequently the importance of Hestia, its presiding deity.”

“And yet, what are the true joys of life? By what does a man in all sincerity measure his standard of living? For myself, I would say that the good life is a small house, a cottage, and in that cottage a hearth that will burn wood, and a lamp or two and a shelf of books.”
