This world is not my home
Language: English
This world is not my home, I'm only passing through. My treasures and my hopes, are, all, beyond the sky, I've many friends and kindreds that's gone along before, and I can't feel at home in this world any more.
Note: quoted by James Agee in Let Us Now Praise Famous Men.
