Text Quotes
There are times when you seek your solitude, and your solitude just wants to be left alone  (Solitude Quotes) We need to build downtime into our lives, so that we can have solitude without feeling overcome with guilt  (Solitude Quotes) In the tumult of great events, solitude was what I hoped for. Now it is what I love. How is it possible to be contented with anything else when one has come face to face with history?  (Solitude Quotes) Solitude is naught and society is naught. Alternate them and the good of each is seen  (Solitude Quotes) And for this you must have quiet and solitude. But society does not allow you to have them. You must be with people, outwardly active at all costs. If you are alone you are considered antisocial or peculiar, or you are afraid of your own loneliness  (Solitude Quotes) There is not true intimacy between souls who do not know how to respect one another’s solitude  (Solitude Quotes) On the whole, the longing for solitude is a sign that there still is spirit in a person and is a measure of what spirit there is  (Solitude Quotes) Solitude is the furnace of transformation. Without solitude we remain victims of our society and continue to be entangled in the illusions of the false self  (Solitude Quotes) It is in solitude that we discover that being is more important than having and that we are worth more than the results of our efforts. In solitude we discover that our life is not a possession to be defended but a gift to be shared  (Solitude Quotes) Humility provides everyone, even him who despairs in solitude, with the strongest relationship to his fellow man  (Solitude Quotes) Solitude is the place of purification and transformation, the place of the great struggle and the great encounter  (Solitude Quotes) Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say  (Solitude Quotes) Now I see that all relationships are virtual, even those that take place in person. Whether we use our bodies or a keyboard, it all comes down to two minds crying out from their solitude  (Solitude Quotes) I shall lead you through the loneliness, the solitude you will not understand; but it is my shortcut to your soul  (Solitude Quotes) Apply yourself to solitude. One who is given to solitude knows things as they really are  (Solitude Quotes) The artist knows he must be alone to create; the writer, to work out his thoughts; the musician, to compose; the saint, to pray. But women need solitude in order to find again the true essence of themselves  (Solitude Quotes) I like silence; I’m a gregarious loner and without the solitude, I lose my gregariousness  (Solitude Quotes) Working conditions for me have always been those of the monastic life: solitude and frugality. Except for frugality, they are contrary to my nature, so much so that work is a violence I do to myself  (Solitude Quotes) Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament. It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius. Without it, what is man? A splendid slave, a reasoning savage  (Solitude Quotes) The mark of solitude is silence, as speech is the mark of community. Silence and speech have the same inner correspondence and difference as do solitude and community. One does not exist without the other. Right speech comes out of silence, and right silence comes out of speech  (Solitude Quotes) In thinking about religion and society in the 21st century, we should broaden the conversation about faith from doctrinal debates to the larger question of how it might inspire us to strengthen the bonds of belonging that redeem us from our solitude, helping us to construct together a gracious and generous social order  (Solitude Quotes) In the world of the dreamer there was solitude: all the exaltations and joys came in the moment of preparation for living. They took place in solitude. But with action came anxiety, and the sense of insuperable effort made to match the dream, and with it came weariness, discouragement, and the flight into solitude again. And then in solitude, in the opium den of remembrance, the possibility of pleasure again  (Solitude Quotes) To say that she had a book is to say that her solitude did not press upon her; for her love of knowledge had a fertilizing quality and her imagination was strong. There was at this time, however, a want of lightness in her situation, which the arrival of an unexpected visitor did much to dispel  (Solitude Quotes) Do not allow yourself to be imprisoned by any affection. Keep your solitude. The day, if it ever comes, when you are given true affection, there will be no opposition between interior solitude and friendship, quite the reverse. It is even by this infallible sigh that you will recognize it  (Solitude Quotes) I am alone so I dream of the being who has cured my solitude, who would be cured by solitudes. With its life, it brought me the idealizations of life, all the idealizations which give life a double, which lead life toward it summits, which make the dreamer too live by splitting  (Solitude Quotes) A beautiful woman risking everything for a mad passion. A few wild weeks of happiness cut short by a hideous, treacherous crime. Months of voiceless agony, and then a child born in pain. The mother snatched away by death, the boy left to solitude and the tyranny of an old and loveless man. Yes, it was an interesting background. It posed the lad, made him more perfect as it were. Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic  (Solitude Quotes) It is always what I have already said: always the wish that you may find patience enough in yourself to endure, and simplicity enough to believe; that you may acquire more and more confidence in that which is difficult, and in your solitude among others. And for the rest, let life happen to you. Believe me: life is right, in any case  (Solitude Quotes) He spoke of human solitude, about the intrinsic loneliness of a sophisticated mind, one that is capable of reason and poetry but which grasps at straws when it comes to understanding another, a mind aware of the impossibility of absolute understanding. The difficulty of having a mind that understands that it will always be misunderstood  (Solitude Quotes) If I regarded my life from the point of view of the pessimist, I should be undone. I should seek in vain for the light that does not visit my eyes and the music that does not ring in my ears. I should beg night and day and never be satisfied. I should sit apart in awful solitude, a prey to fear and despair. But since I consider it a duty to myself and to others to be happy, I escape a misery worse than any physical deprivation  (Solitude Quotes) So I have to create the whole thing afresh for myself each time. Probably all writers now are in the same boat. It is the penalty we pay for breaking with tradition, and the solitude makes the writing more exciting though the being read less so. One ought to sink to the bottom of the sea, probably, and live alone with ones words  (Solitude Quotes)
