“Solitude is fine but you need someone to tell that solitude is fine.”
― Honoré de Balzac

“The secret to getting ahead is getting started.”
― Mark Twain

“there is a loneliness in this world so great that you can see it in the slow movement of the hands of a clock”

“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.”
― Edgar Allan Poe
