Lonely Quotations
It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.
Albert Einstein
Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.
Mother Teresa
Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.
Khalil Gibran

Maya Angelou
The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.
Henry David Thoreau
You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.
