Forever feels a long time when you're eighteen. When you're away from home for the first time in your life, when you forge instant friendships that are so strong they are destined, surely, to be with you until the bitter end.

About This Quote

When you're away from home for the first time in your life, when you forge instant friendships that are so strong they are destined, surely, to be with you until the bitter end. A few years ago, a friend of mine and I were talking about our lives and how we've changed. We were both in our early twenties, and we compared what our lives looked like now to how it looked a few years ago. We laughed about how much we've grown up in such a short amount of time.

The world seems to move much faster when you're young. One day can feel like forever, or an instant.
