Quote

I cry when I feel moved by incredible generosity or a connection to someone. We spend so much of our lives being separated. It's the relief of connection that produces the tears.

Times may have changed, but there are some things that are always with us - loneliness is one of them.

While I have felt lonely many times in my life, the oddest feeling of all was after my mother, Lucille, died. My father had already died, but I always had some attachment to our big family while she was alive. It seems strange to say now that I felt so lonely, yet I did.

I cry so much less than I used to. I used to be one of the most teary people.

Because of my childhood where I was constantly by myself, I always feel lonely. I have a lot of people that I absolutely love and I know love me but I can't get rid of that feeling of loneliness no matter who I'm with - even with my children.

Many of my characters struggle with loneliness, that is fair to say.

No one really wants to admit they are lonely, and it is never really addressed very much between friends and family. But I have felt lonely many times in my life.

A lot of my life has been lonely. Fantastic, but lonely.

As an only child, I may have been alone a lot, but I was never lonely. My invisible friends were my constant companions.

Sometimes I get lonely, but it's nice to be alone.
