Taking a page from WT's book here and posting two for comparison's sake (also in honor of the MR Literary Book Club selecting a Dickens for July):
"When I speak of home, I speak of the place where -- in default of a better -- those I love are gathered together; and if that place were a gypsy's tent, or a barn, I should call it by the same good name notwithstanding." -Nicholas Nickleby by Charles Dickens
"And though home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit answered to, in strongest conjuration. - Martin Chuzzlewit by Charles Dickens
