“Loneliness weakens. Aloneness empowers. Aloneness makes of us something so much more than we are in the midst of others whose claim is that they know us.”
- Joyce Carol Oates from The Lost Landscape
“Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is richness of self.”
- May Sarton
“The cure for loneliness is solitude.”
—Marianne Moore
"If aloneness is inevitable, I want to believe that aloneness is what I have desired because it is happiness itself."
-Yiyun Li from 'Amongst People'

-Olivia Laing from “The Lonely City"
