I'm a somewhat isolated person in my own way, or I move along a little trail, I go this place, I go that place. It's not like I'm varying my exposure.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I probably like being isolated more than many people do, but I'm lucky to have the friendship of many fine people, and they keep me from becoming very isolated. The world of my mind is certainly a populated and warm place, too. It's difficult for me to become too isolated with such resources.
I've always felt myself to be an outsider. I've always felt awkward.
I suppose I do think I go out of my way to be a very normal person, and I just find it frustrating that people think that I'm some kind of weirdo reclusive that never comes out into the world.
I'm so secluded. Very alone.
If you feel like an outsider, you tend to observe things a lot more.
I sort of came from a big family - eight kids - and I guess I always, more than most people, really revel in privacy and solitude sometimes.
When you feel like an outsider - for whatever reason - you spend a lot of time alone.
You can't live in your own secluded world. If you're not on the Tube, on the bus doing normal things, how can you relate to people?
I haven't isolated myself. I am not living on a yacht somewhere. I am not tucked away or behind a gate somewhere. I am not flying on a private plane. I am going to the airport, I am with people, some of the interactions are good, some of them are not so good, but it keeps me in touch with being, you know, part of society.
I am isolated as an artist, not as a person.
