“… clumsiness is often mated with a love of solitude.”

“I am that clumsy human, always loving, loving, loving. And loving. And never leaving.”

“In solitude, they will discover the love that might otherwise arrive unnoticed. In solitude, they will understand and respect the love that left them.”

“In solitude she lived,
And in solitude built her nest;
And in solitude, alone
Hath the Beloved guided her,
In solitude also wounded with love. ~ 35”

“She frowned at him. 'You are in love with solitude.'
'Is there a better cure for the world than solitude?”

“Never forget that solitude is my lot… I implore those who love me to love my solitude."

(, May 11, 1910)”

“Solitude is not the absence of Love, but its complement.”

“The absence of one we love is not solitude, it is severance.”

“Though man's feeling for the other-worldly often has recourse to solitude, solitude does not foster its development; rather, it is nourished by communion, to which the church is more propitious than the cemetery.”

“I have often thought I would have been quite happy as a spider.
Even a spider has the right to a mate.”
