Vanda Alexandre-Bruce

“
Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. An intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you'll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want, and not let the cattle stand in your way.”
― Janet Fitch, White Oleander

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.”
― Rabindranath Tagore

“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“I like being myself. Myself and nasty.”
― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
