3 December 2020 Jessamyn West Writing is a solitary occupation. Family, friends, and society are the natural enemies of the writer. He must be alone, uninterrupted, and slightly savage if he is to sustain and complete an undertaking.

3 December 2020 Paul Davies Perhaps the best motivation for going to Mars is political. It is obvious that no single nation currently has either the will or the resources to do it alone, but a consortium of nations and space agencies could achieve it within 20 years.
3 December 2020 Dylan Thomas Go on thinking that you don’t need to be read and you’ll find that it may become quite true: no one will feel the need tom read it because it is written for yourself alone and the public won’t feel any impulse to gate crash such a private party.
3 December 2020 Alice Koller 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.
3 December 2020 George Berkeley Others indeed may talk, and write, and fight about liberty, and make an outward pretence to it but the free-thinker alone is truly free.

3 December 2020 Mark Wahlberg I don’t wanna hear nobody complain that they’re getting paid all this money and people won’t leave them alone. It’s part of it.

3 December 2020 Henry James People talk about the conscience, but it seems to me one must just bring it up to a certain point and leave it there. You can let your conscience alone if you’re nice to the second housemaid.

3 December 2020 Jeanne Moreau I think more and more people want to live alone. You can be a couple without being in each other’s pockets. I don’t see why you have to share the same bathroom.
3 December 2020 Britney Spears I’m not at the point where I’d feel safe in a house alone. I would be really scared. I’m the kind of person that when I get up to go use the bathroom I have this big long hallway, and I just know someone’s going to jump out and get me.
3 December 2020 Jason Schwartzman Man, I hate to get depressing on you, but I don’t have a game. I’m so alone, so depressed, so dark, no.
