Alone each heart must cover up its dead; Alone, through bitter toil, achieve its rest.

~~~~~~~

Alone!–That worn-out word, So idly spoken, and so coldly heard; Yet all that poets sing, and grief hath known, Of hope laid waste, knells in that word–Alone!

~~~~~~~

Alone, alone, all, all alone, Alone on a wide wide sea!

~~~~~~~

Alone, even doing nothing, you do not waste your time. You do, almost always, in company. No encounter with yourself can be altogether sterile: Something necessarily emerges, even if only the hope of some day meeting yourself again.

~~~~~~~

Among them, but not of them.

~~~~~~~

An artist is always alone — if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness.

~~~~~~~

An entire life of solitude contradicts the purpose of our being, since death itself is scarcely an idea of more terror.

~~~~~~~

And when Solitude leads us into all manner of evil. [Lat., Atque ubi omnia nobis mala solitudo persuadet.]

~~~~~~~

And Wisdom’s self Oft seeks to sweet retired solitude, Where, with he best nurse, Contemplation, She plumes her feathers, and lets grow her wings, That in the various bustle of resort Were all too ruffled, and sometimes impaired.

~~~~~~~

Away, away, from men and towns, To the wild wood and the downs, To the silent wilderness.

~~~~~~~

Be not solitary, be not idle.

~~~~~~~

Being solitary is being alone well: being alone luxuriously immersed in doings of your own choice, aware of the fullness of your won presence rather than of the absence of others. Because solitude is an achievement.

~~~~~~~

Birds sing in vain to the ear, flowers bloom in vain to the eye, of mortified vanity and galled ambition. He who would know repose in retirement must carry into retirement his destiny, integral and serene, as the Caesars transported the statue of Fortune into the chamber they chose for their sleep.

~~~~~~~

But little do men perceive what solitude is, and how far its extendeth. For a crowd is not company; and faces are but a gallery of pictures; and talk but a tinkling cymbal, where there is no love.

~~~~~~~

But ‘midst the crowd, the hum, the shock of men, To hear, to see, to feel, and to possess, And roam along, the world’s tired denizen, With none who bless us, none whom we can bless.

~~~~~~~

Certain springs are tapped only when we are alone.

~~~~~~~

Constant quiet fills my peaceful breast with unmixed joy.

~~~~~~~

Converse with men makes sharp the glittering wit, But God to man doth speak in solitude.
