Loneliness Quotations Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. Maya Angelou It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony. Benjamin Britten Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness. Dag Hammarskjold My peers, lately, have found companionship through means of intoxication - it makes them sociable. I, however, cannot force myself to use drugs to cheat on my loneliness - it is all that I have - and when the drugs and alcohol dissipate, will be all that my peers have as well. Franz Kafka Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon. Woody Allen
