“The trick is to never stop looking. There's always another secret.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Mistborn: The Final Empire

“... it's a lie that people are scared of being alone, because what we fear is being abandoned. You can choose to be alone, but no one chooses to be left.”
― Fredrik Backman, My Friends

“If you’re always on time, it implies that you never have anything better you should be doing.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Mistborn: The Final Empire

“There is no good word for the opposite of lonesome.
One might be tempted to suggest togetherness or contentment , but the fact that these two other words bear definitions unrelated to each other perfectly displays why lonesome cannot be properly mirrored. It does not mean solitude, nor alone, nor lonely, although lonesome can contain all of those words in itself.
Lonesome means a state of being apart. Of being other. Alone-some.”
― Maggie Stiefvater, Blue Lily, Lily Blue
