Lonelier Quotes (page 9)

I never really understood the word ‘loneliness’. As far as I was concerned, I was in an orgy with the sky and the ocean, and with nature. Bjork
Haruki Murakami quote: "In the infinite loneliness ofspace, what could Laika possibly..."
In the infinite loneliness ofspace, what could Laika possibly be looking at? Haruki Murakami
Who can really distinguish between the sea and what's reflected in it? Or tell the difference between the falling rain and loneliness? Haruki Murakami
you, who must leave everything/ that you cannot control/ it begins with your family, but soon it comes round/ to your soul/ well, I've been where you're hanging, I think I can see how you're pinned/ when you're not feeling holy, your loneliness says/ that youve sinned Leonard Cohen
Ayn Rand quote: "He never felt loneliness except when he was happy."
He never felt loneliness except when he was happy. Ayn Rand
You sense my loneliness, (...) my bitterness at being shut out of life. My bitterness that I'm evil, that I don't deserve to be loved and yet I need love hungrily. My horror that I can never reveal myself to mortals. But these things don't stop me, Mother. I'm too strong for them to stop me. As you said yourself once, I am very good at being what I am. These things merely now and then make me suffer, that's all Anne Rice
Monk had a brief vision of what it must be like to be a women on her own, obliged to work at pleasing people because your acceptance, perhaps even your financial survival, depended upon it. There must be hundreds - thousands - of petty accommodations, suppressions of your own beliefs and opinions because they would not be what someone else wished to hear. What a constant humiliation, like a burning blister on the heel which hurt with every step. And on the other hand, what a desperate... Anne Perry
I have learned to be steady in my course of love, or fear, or loneliness, rather than impulsive in its wasting, either lyrically or emotionally. Rosanne Cash
To save myself, I would try to summon up a vision of Mattie, but I could not see her. I could not imagine her. Some nights in the midst of this loneliness I swung among the scattered stars at the end of the thin thread of faith alone. And then I would wake up and be in awe to see the daylight coming and my old familiar workaday life taking shape again in the dear world. Coherence and clarity returned. I could imagine myself again. I could imagine Mattie Chatham. I could imagine Port William. Wendell Berry
Look, it's a monster. He's walking alone. Look, he's pulling something out of his pocket. He threw it on the ground. Let's go see what it is. It's a black box. You open it... ok... Look, it's sorrow, misery and pain. It's loneliness and longing. Boy, he'll be sorry he lost these. Henry Rollins
It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start. Mother Teresa
He desired her vaguely but without convinction. They walked together. He suddenly realized that she had always been very decent to him. She had accepted him as he was and had spared him a great deal of loneliness. He had been unfair: while his imagination and vanity had given her too much importance, his pride had given her too little. He discovered the cruel paradox by which we always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love -- first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.... Albert Camus
Our language has wisely sensed these two sides of man’s being alone. It has created the word “loneliness” to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word “solitude” to express the glory of being alone. Although, in daily life, we do not always distinguish these words, we should do so consistently and thus deepen our understanding of our human predicament. Paul Tillich
Graham Greene quote: "A picture postcard is a symptom of loneliness."
A picture postcard is a symptom of loneliness. Graham Greene
I felt for the first time the premonitory of loneliness. It was all fantastic, and yet, and yet... He might be a poor lover, but I was a poor man. He had in his hand the infinite riches of respectability Graham Greene
