I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone.

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

What a lovely surprise to finally discover how unlonely being alone can be.

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

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

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.

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

Absolutely lonely people have few personal interactions of any kind.

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.

Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place.
