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

Absolutely lonely people have few personal interactions of any kind.

All men's misfortunes spring from their hatred of being alone.

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

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

Before the throne of the Almighty, man will be judged not by his acts but by his intentions. For God alone reads our hearts.

There are places and moments in which one is so completely alone that one sees the world entire.

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

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