Joyce Maynard Home Quotations

A good home must be made, not bought. In the end, it's not track lighting or a sun room that brings light into a kitchen.

At Home in the World is the story of a young woman, raised in some difficult circumstances, and how she survives. It tells a story of redemption, not victimhood.

[On home births:] In a house where there had been three people, there were now four, although no one had come in the door.

Wherever it is you make your home, there is always this other place, this other person, calling to you. Come to me. Come back.

A good home must be made, not bought.
