A man content to go to heaven alone will never go to heaven.

I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone, because I am the person I know best.

When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.

All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone.

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

It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone.

If you are lonely when you're alone, you are in bad company.

The capacity for not feeling lonely can carry a very real price, that of feeling nothing at all.

You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.
