The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.

If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.

It’s better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.

No man is born unto himself alone; who lives unto himself, he lives to none.

Be alone, that is the secret of invention; be alone, that is when ideas are born.

Until you get comfortable with being alone, you’ll never know if you’re choosing someone out of love or loneliness.

So long as you are secure you will count many friends; if your life becomes clouded you will be alone.

To feel the intimacy of brothers is a marvelous thing in life.

There are three great friends: an old wife, and old dog, and ready money.

Intelligent people tend to have less friends than the average person. The smarter you are, the more selective you become.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

One love, one heart, one destiny.

I’m fascinated with myself and love hearing the sound of my own voice. I’d like to hear what I have to say. A lot of people don’t like being alone because they truly don’t like themselves, but I love me.

Listen with ears of tolerance, see through the eyes of compassion, speak with language of love.

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Think enthusiastically about everything; but especially about your job. If you do, you'll put a torch of glory in your life. If you love your job with enthusiasm, you'll shake it to pieces. You'll love it into greatness, you'll upgrade it, you'll fill it with prestige and power.

Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.
