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.

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

Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.

Even in the presence of others he was completely alone.

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

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

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

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.

Living alone makes it harder to find someone to blame.
