I never said, 'I want to be alone.' I only said, 'I want to be left alone.' There is all the difference.

I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.

Only the lonely know the way I feel tonight.

As I get older I'm more and more comfortable being alone.

The only real progress lies in learning to be wrong all alone.

We are all sentenced to solitary confinement inside our own skins, for life.

It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.

Every man must do two things alone he must do his own believing and his own dying.

I finally faced the fact that it isn't a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.

Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.
