Your relationship with yourself is a marriage from which there is no earthly escape. Death is the only divorce. A well-ordered mind is at home with solitude. A contented man can tolerate his own company.

The Stoic Emperor

It's better to be alone than in bad company.

George Washington

Loneliness is a sign you are in desperate need of yourself.

Rupi Kaur

There is so much pain in the world, and most of these people keep theirs secret, rolling through agonizing lives in invisible wheelchairs, dressed in invisible bodycasts.

Andrew Solomon

You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give.

E.O. Wilson

I am completely a loner. In my head I want to feel I can be anywhere. There is a sort of recklessness that being a loner allows me.

Arundhati Roy
