Soledad

“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.”

Orson Welles


"To be an adult is to be alone".
Jean Rostand

"Man's loneliness is but his fear of life".
Eugene O'neill

“Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.”

Dag Hammarskjold

“Language... has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.”

Paul Tillich

“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
