Quotations
Loneliness
People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory.
-Karl Lagerfeld
We live as we dream--Alone.
-Joseph Conrad
"Heart of Darkness"
Thirsty for attention is a cry of loneliness.
-Toba Beta
"My Ancestor Was an Ancient Astronaut"
Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it is better to be alone than to be in bad company.
-Booker T. Washington
I had gotten so used to being alone, but never entirely used to it. Never used to it enough to stop wanting the alternative.
-David Levithan
"Every You, Every Me"

-David Levithan
"Every Day"
Loneliness is the standard that separates life from death.
