Loneliness is proof that your innate search for connection is intact.
Loneliness is and always has been the central and inevitable experience of every man.
The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence.
Who knows what true loneliness is - not the conventional word but the naked terror? To the lonely themselves it wears a mask. The most miserable outcast hugs some memory or some illusion.
Yet it is in this loneliness that the deepest activities begin. It is here that you discover act without motion, labor that is profound repose, vision in obscurity, and, beyond all desire, a fulfillment whose limits extend to infinity.
There is no loneliness greater than the loneliness of a failure. The failure is a stranger in his own house.
Loneliness expresses the pain of being alone and solitude expresses the glory of being alone.
We are all so much together, but we are all dying of loneliness.
Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.
If loneliness is part of our essence, that is, our essential nature, that is only because of the way, in practical terms, we actually exist; that is, the way we move and work and live in the world.
