In my obsessive wikiquote searches I came across Nile Kinnick...
I have been reading through the words taken from letters he wrote to family and friends and found these lovely words:
"I am so glad you could speak enthusiastically of your visit to Iowa City. That little town means so much to me...It is almost like home. I love the people, the campus, the trees, everything about it. And it is beautiful in the spring...And I hope you strolled off across the golf course just at twilight and felt the peace and quiet of an Iowa evening, just as I used to do." Letter to friend Celia Peairs (May 31, 1943)
I couldn't say it better. I miss our times together in Iowa City.
