Alone Quotes (page 69)

Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "I am alone, I thought, and they are everybody."
I am alone, I thought, and they are everybody. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Of one thing we may be sure, we can never escape the external stimuli that cause vexation. The world is full of them, and though we were to retreat to a cave and live the remainder of our days alone, we still could not lose them. The rough floor of the cave would chafe us, the weather would irritate us and the very silence would cause us to fret Aiden Wilson Tozer
If abuses are destroyed, we must destroy them. If slaves are freed, we must free them. If new truths are discovered, we must discover them. If the naked are clothed; if the hungry are fed; if justice is done; if labor is rewarded; if superstition is driven from the mind; if the defenseless are protected and if the right finally triumphs, all must be the work of people. The grand victories of the future must be won by humanity, and by humanity alone. Robert Green Ingersoll
Peter S. Beagle quote: "The last unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and she lived all alone."
The last unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and she lived all alone. Peter S. Beagle
He has to find more and better ways of occupying his time. His time, what a bankrupt idea, as if he's been given a box of time belonging to him alone, stuffed to the brim with hours and minutes that he can spend like money. Trouble is, the box has holes in it and the time is running out, no matter what he does with it. Margaret Atwood
We have only to follow the thread of the hero path. And where we had thought to find an abomonation, we shall find a God. And where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves. And where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence. And where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world. Joseph Campbell
The good Watson had at that time deserted me for a wife, the only selfish action I can recall in our association. I was alone. Arthur Conan Doyle
Oscar Wilde quote: "With age comes wisdom, but sometimes age comes alone."
With age comes wisdom, but sometimes age comes alone. Oscar Wilde
Marcel Proust quote: "One says the things which one feels the need to say, and which..."
One says the things which one feels the need to say, and which the other will not understand: one speaks for oneself alone. Marcel Proust
Leon Trotsky quote: "Everything is relative in this world, where change alone endures."
Everything is relative in this world, where change alone endures. Leon Trotsky
At last I understood that the way over, or through this dilemma, the unease at writing about 'petty personal problems' was to recognize that nothing is personal, in the sense that it is uniquely one's own. Writing about oneself, one is writing about others, since your problems, pains, pleasures, emotions—and your extraordinary and remarkable ideas—can't be yours alone. [...] Growing up is after all only the understanding that one's unique and incredible experience is what everyone shares. Doris Lessing
She had become accustomed to being lonely. She was used to walking alone and to being considered 'different.' She did not suffer too much. Betty Smith
Edgar Allan Poe quote: "And all I loved, I loved alone."
And all I loved, I loved alone. Edgar Allan Poe
Since then your sere Majesty and your Lordships seek a simple answer, I will give it in this manner, neither horned nor toothed. Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason (for I do not trust either in the pope or in councils alone, since it is well known that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am bound by the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and I will not recant anything, since it is... Martin Luther
It is not inertia alone that is responsible for human relationships repeating themselves from case to case, indescribably monotonous and unrenewed: it is shyness before any sort of new, unforeseeable experience with which one does not think oneself able to cope. But only someone who is ready for everything, who excludes nothing, not even the most enigmatical will live the relation to another as something alive. Rainer Maria Rilke
