3 December 2020 Aeschylus

Wisdom comes alone through suffering.

3 December 2020 Florence King

I can’t write without a reader. It’s precisely like a kiss – you can’t do it alone.

3 December 2020 Paul Newman

You only grow when you are alone.

3 December 2020 Philip Zimbardo

One of the places where we lived when I was growing up had this big wood out the back. And starting when I was about 8, I used to enjoy just walking alone through the wood late. Eleven p.m. Midnight. Later.

3 December 2020 Glenn Beck

I’m a dad, and I no longer see a way for my kids to even inherit the money that I’m making, let alone go out there, have an idea, and create it in their own lifetime.

3 December 2020 Rick Santorum

I believe in capitalism for everybody, not necessarily high finance but capitalism that works for the working men and women of this country who are out there paddling alone in America right now.

3 December 2020 Naveen Jain

Success doesn’t necessarily come from breakthrough innovation but from flawless execution. A great strategy alone won’t win a game or a battle the win comes from basic blocking and tackling.

3 December 2020 Yoko Ono

Being alone is very difficult.

3 December 2020 Tallulah Bankhead

3 December 2020 Michael Patrick King

Let there be no mistake. A gay man alone could never begin to replicate the inner workings of the female mind.

3 December 2020 Dirk Kempthorne

Our Lord has written the promise of resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime.

3 December 2020 A. N. Wilson

It is eerie being all but alone in Westminster Abbey. Without the tourists, there are only the dead, many of them kings and queens. They speak powerfully and put my thoughts into vivid perspective.

3 December 2020 Emma Roberts

I’m a huge Wes Anderson fan I would faint if I met him, let alone got to work with him.

3 December 2020 Charles Lindbergh

Is he alone who has courage on his right hand and faith on his left hand?

3 December 2020 Harold Bloom
