Distance and absence can sometimes kill love and passion, but in other cases they can make them even stronger. If it is true love what we are talking about, there will be no obstacles it cannot overcome. There may be tough moments, but remember that after the rain, there is always the sun. After a long absence, passion can either vanish, or grow even bigger.
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
— Francois de La Rochefoucauld
