- “ No one would choose a friendless existence on condition of having all the other things in the world.” [ARISTOTLE, Nichomachean Ethics (4th c B.C.)]
- “Only in a house where one has learnt to be lonely does one have this solitude for things. One’s relation to them the daily seeing, or touching, begins to become love” [ELISABETH BOWEN, The Death of the Hearth.” (1936)]
- “Who knows what true loneliness is- not the conventional word but the naked terror? To the lonely themselves it wears a mask. The most miserable outcast hugs some memory or some illusion.” [ JOSEPH CONRAD , Under Western Eyes ” (1911)]
