Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Summary

This quote suggests that being away from someone or something can actually intensify one's feelings towards them. When we are physically apart from things that hold value to us, whether it be a person or a place, we may realize how much they truly mean to us. The space and distance allow us to appreciate their presence and cherish the bond or connection we share. It implies that sometimes something's absence can make us appreciate and love it even more.

Sometimes Alton Darwin would talk to me about the planet he was on before he was transported in a steel box to Athena. 'Drugs were food,' he said. 'I was in the food business.
