Ok, off topic question for all the smart people here! I mean, all the people here are smart. ;)

I saw a philosophical quote the other day, and, for the life of me, I can't find it now. It was by Saint somebody-or-other, and the gist of it is this: when the woman you love dies, she's no longer there with you, but she's everywhere with you.

Anybody know the quote I'm talking about? Thanks.



Actually, I sorta like the way I just said it there.

nobody? :(

I'm sure I'm not the only one who looked.

I couldn't find diddly...

Thanks for looking! I meant that nobody knew or could find it. Actually, I'm not surprised no one found it--I'm pretty handy with the Google machine myself. But I'm surprised no one knows the quote I'm talking about...this is such a versatile group with lots of esoteric knowledge.

Well, it was worth a try anyway.

I found the booklet in which I saw the original quote:

"She whom we love and lose is no longer where she was before. She is now wherever we are." -Saint John Chrysostom

I think I modernized it...

Hey, I came across a quote that is similar in sentiment,
but a little nicer (IMO):

Those we love don’t go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear
