Lonely women destroy themselves; lonely men threaten the world.

We are all strong enough to bear other men's misfortunes.

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

A man is never completely alone in this world. At the worst, he has the company of a boy, a youth, and by and by a grown man - the one he used to be.

It is misery, you know, unspeakable misery for the man who lives alone and who detests sordid, casual affairs; not old enough to do without women, but not young enough to be able to go and look for one without shame!

I've also seen that great men are often lonely. This is understandable, because they have built such high standards for themselves that they often feel alone. But that same loneliness is part of their ability to create.

Loneliness is and always has been the central and inevitable experience of every man.

There are no hopeless situations; there are only men who have grown hopeless about them.

It would do the world good if every man would compel himself occasionally to be absolutely alone. Most of the world s progress has come out of such loneliness.

Men err from selfishness; women because they are weak.
