Absence in love is like water upon fire;
a little quickens, but much extinguishes it.
                -- Hannah More

Absence is to love what wind is to fire.  It extinguishes the small,
it enkindles the great.

Absence makes the heart forget.

Absence makes the heart go wander.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
                -- Sextus Aurelius

Absence makes the heart grow fonder -- of somebody else.

Absence makes the heart grow frantic.
