"Solitude is different from loneliness, and it doesn't have to be a lonely kind of thing."
Quote by -Fred Rogers
The "sociable" man, always outside himself, is capable of living only in the opinions of others and, so to speak, derives the sentiment of his own existence solely from their judgment.
Quote by -Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Quote by -Maya Angelou
Solitude, the safeguard of mediocrity, is to genius the stern friend.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Respect the child. Wait and see the new product of Nature. Nature loves analogies, but not repetitions. Respect the child. Be not too much his parent. Trespass not on his solitude.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Solitude is dangerous to reason, without being favorable to virtue. Remember that the solitary mortal is certainly luxurious, probably superstitious, and possibly mad."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"His own life seemed so solitary, a fragile column supporting nothing amidst the wreckage of the years."
Quote by -Carson McCullers
“In a nation distracted by faction, there are, no doubt, always a few, though commonly but a very few, who preserve their judgment untainted by the general contagion. They seldom amount to more than, here and there, a solitary individual, without any influence, excluded, by his own candour, from the confidence of either party, and who, though he may be one of the wisest, is necessarily, upon that very account, one of the most insignificant men in the society.”
Quote by -Adam Smith
“Each man is forever thrown back on himself alone, and there is danger that he may be shut up in the solitude of his own heart.”
Quote by -Alexis de Tocqueville
Only solitary men know the full joys of friendship. Others have their family; but to a solitary and an exile his friends are everything.
Quote by -Willa Cather
I feel that adolescence has served its purpose when a person arrives at adulthood with a strong sense of self-esteem, the ability to relate intimately, to communicate congruently, to take responsibility, and to take risks. The end of adolescence is the beginning of adulthood. What hasn't been finished then will have to be finished later.
Quote by -Virginia Satir
Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty, unfamiliar and perilous.
Quote by -Thomas Mann
Solitude favors the original, the daringly and otherworldly beautiful, the poem. But it also favors the wrongful, the extreme, the absurd, and the forbidden.
Quote by -Thomas Mann
