3 December 2020 Lisa Marie Presley If I’m alone too long I think too much, and I’m not interested in doing that. That won’t lead anywhere good, I’m sure. If I’m busy I tend to stay out of trouble. An idle mind is the devil’s playground.
3 December 2020 Henry Rollins Yes, I guess you could say I am a loner, but I feel more lonely in a crowed room with boring people than I feel on my own.
3 December 2020 William Hazlitt Love turns, with a little indulgence, to indifference or disgust hatred alone is immortal.
3 December 2020 Tom Petty I don’t treat the band like I’m above them or that they’re a hired hand for me. We’ve never worked that way. So I’m a team player. I would be very uncomfortable having to do this alone.
3 December 2020 Slavoj Zizek You could say, in a vulgar Freudian way, that I am the unhappy child who escapes into books. Even as a child, I was most happy being alone. This has not changed.

3 December 2020 Eddie Van Halen I’m not a rock star. Sure I am, to a certain extent because of the situation, but when kids ask me how it feels to be a rock star, I say leave me alone, I’m not a rock star. I’m not in it for the fame, I’m in it because I like to play.
