"You depart while others, unamazingly enough, stay behind to continue doing what they’ve always done – and upon returning, you are surprised and momentarily thrilled to see that they are still there, and, too, reassured by there being somebody who is spending his whole life in the same little place and who as no desire to go"
Philip Roth, in Exit Ghost.
