I had gotten so used to being alone, but never entirely used to it. Never used to it enough to stop wanting the alternative.

"Every You, Every Me"
Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.
-Henry Rollins
Language... has created the word loneliness to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word solitude to express the glory of being alone.
-Paul Johannes Tillich

-Karl Lagerfeld
Be good and you will be lonesome.
-Mark Twain
"Following the Equator: A Journey Around the World"
Don’t try to hog loneliness and keep it all to yourself. Share it with a special someone.
-Jarod Kintz
"The Titanic would never have sunk if it were made out of a sink"

-Bronnie Ware
If one's different, one's bound to be lonely.
