Text Quotes
There’s a big difference between being alone and being lonely. And I’m guessing that once you’ve discovered this distinction you can’t go back to solitary confinement without serious emotional repercussions  (Alone Quotes) Every so often I take out a volume and read a page or two. After all, reading is looking after in a manner of speaking. Though they’re not old enough to be valuable for their age alone, nor important enough to be sought after by collectors, my charges are dear to me, even if, as often as not, they are as dull on the inside as on the outside. No matter how banal the contents, there is always something that touches me. For someone now dead once thought these words significant enough to write them down  (Alone Quotes) Cram your head with characters and stories. Abuse your library privileges. Never stop looking at the world, and never stop reading to find out what sense other people have made of it. If people give you a hard time and tell you to get your nose out of a book, tell them you’re working. Tell them it’s research. Tell them to pipe down and leave you alone  (Alone Quotes) Don’t you know no one can escape the power of creatures reaching out with breath alone?  (Alone Quotes) Do u ever think, when ur all alone, all tht we could be, where this can go, am I crazy, or falling in love?  (Alone Quotes) People don’t expect too much from literature. They just want to know they’re not alone with being confused  (Alone Quotes) Each one of us continues to carry the heart of each self we’ve ever been, at every stage along the way, and a chaos of everything good and rotten. And we have to carry this weight all alone, through each day that we live. We try to be as nice as we can to the people we love, but we alone support the weight of ourselves  (Alone Quotes) Home is where you will always have a place, where you will always feel loved, and you will never be alone  (Alone Quotes) Wounding and healing are not opposites. They’re part of the same thing. It is our wounds that enable us to be compassionate with the wounds of others. It is our limitations that make us kind to the limitations of other people. It is our loneliness that helps us to to find other people or to even know they’re alone with an illness. I think I have served people perfectly with parts of myself I used to be ashamed of  (Alone Quotes) The reader must come armed, in a serious state of intellectual readiness. This is not easy because he comes to the text alone. In reading, one’s responses are isolated, one’sintellect thrown back on its own resourses. To be confronted by the cold abstractions of printed sentences is to look upon language bare, without the assistance of either beauty or community. Thus, reading is by its nature a serious business. It is also, of course, an essentially rational activity  (Alone Quotes) The conclusion I have reached is that, above all, dogs are witnesses. They are allowed access to our most private moments. They are there when we think we are alone. Think of what they could tell us. They sit on the laps of presidents. They see acts of love and violence, quarrels and feuds, and the secret play of children. If they could tell us everything they have seen, all of the gaps of our lives would stitch themselves together  (Alone Quotes) If you wanted to do something absolutely honest, something true, it always turned out to be a thing that had to be done alone  (Alone Quotes) Skill alone cannot teach or produce a great short story, which condenses the obsession of the creature; it is a hallucinatory presence manifest from the first sentence to fascinate the reader, to make him lose contact with the dull reality that surrounds him, submerging him in another that is more intense and compelling  (Alone Quotes) We are trying to communicate that which lies in our deepest heart, which has no words, which can only be hinted at through the means of a story. And somehow, miraculously, a story that comes from deep in my heart calls from a reader that which is deepest in his or her heart, and together from our secret hidden selves we create a story that neither of us could have told alone  (Alone Quotes) If you are alone, tell some stories to yourself. This is a different kind of pleasure and it has, indeed, its reward. I have tasted a little of everything, and I have truly never enjoyed anything more  (Alone Quotes) Reading fiction not only develops our imagination and creativity, it gives us the skills to be alone. It gives us the ability to feel empathy for people we’ve never met, living lives we couldn’t possibly experience for ourselves, because the book puts us inside the character’s skin  (Alone Quotes) Alone, I am nothing. I have nothing.we have power.but we will never know it,we will never see it work.unless we come together to make it work  (Alone Quotes) He was unheeded, happy, and near to the wild heart of life. He was alone and young and wilful and wildhearted, alone amid a waste of wild air and brackish waters and the seaharvest of shells and tangle and veiled grey sunlight  (Alone Quotes) And his eyes frighten me, too. They’re the eyes of an old man, an old man who’s seen so much in life that he no longer cares to go on living. They’re not even desperate... just quiet and expectant, and very, very lonely, as if he were quite alone of his own free choice  (Alone Quotes) I have amazing news for you. Man is not alone on this planet. He is part of a community, upon which he depends absolutely  (Alone Quotes) To remain alone did not seem to me a terrible fate, no worse than being falsely joined to another person  (Alone Quotes) The tragedy of this world is that no one is happy, whether stuck in atime of pain or of joy. The tragedy of this world is that everyone is alone. For a life in the past cannot be shared with the present. Each person who gets stuck in time gets stuck alone  (Alone Quotes) After night comes day. After death comes life. Even at your darkest time look around because you are never really alone. You are loved  (Alone Quotes) There was an enjoyment to being alive, he felt, that because of an underlying meaninglessness–like how a person alone for too long cannot feel comfortable when with others; cannot neglect that underlying the feeling of belongingness is the certainty, really, of loneliness, and nothingness, and so experiences life in that hurried, worthless way one experiences a mistake–he could no longer get at  (Alone Quotes) As she read, at peace with the world and happy as only a little girl could be with a fine book and a little bowl of candy, and all alone in the house, the leaf shadows shifted and the afternoon passed  (Alone Quotes) It was so much easier to be alone, if one could find just the right location  (Alone Quotes) Stop swimming around in your own mind. That is a dangerous neighborhood that you should not go into alone  (Alone Quotes) Is this what it is to get older, to have adventures you can no longer tell your family because you are moving apart from them?... Or do you grow up and have adventures you tell no one? Are some adventures only yours alone?  (Alone Quotes) Oh my God, she couldn’t help thinking. I have hairy legs and I’m going to die alone  (Alone Quotes) A room? A nice room? A beautiful room? A beautiful room with bath? Swing high, swing low, swing to and fro... This happened and that happened... And then the days came and I was alone  (Alone Quotes)
