About This Quote
This is a beautifully simple statement that captures all of the beauty that can be found in home.

When you think of home, do you picture a place with one person living alone? The truth is, home is not necessarily a location where you always have to be surrounded by others. All it takes is someone who knows all of your friends and enemies, someone who understands how you feel, to make your life complete.
