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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself.

Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation for it is better to be alone than in bad company.

Yes, I guess you could say I am a loner, but I feel more lonely in a crowed room with boring people than I feel on my own.
