Jodi Picoult
“Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.”
― Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper

― Gloria Naylor

“being alone never felt right. sometimes it felt good, but it never felt right.”
― Charles Bukowski, Women

― F. Scott Fitzgerald

“Embrace your solitude and love it. Endure the pain it causes, and try to sing out with it. For those near to you are distant...”
