“man as part of a movement or a crowd is indifferent to me. He is inhuman. And I have nothing to do with nations, or nationalism. The only feelings I have – for what they are – are for men as individuals; my loyalties, such as they may be, are to private persons alone.”
― Patrick O'Brian, Master and Commander

“BLESSED ARE YOU WHO HAS given each man a shield of loneliness so that he cannot forget you. You are the truth of loneliness, and only your name addresses it.

Only in your name can I stand in the rush of time, only when this loneliness is yours can I lift my sins toward your mercy.”
― Leonard Cohen, Book of Mercy
