Solitude would be ideal if you could pick the people to avoid.

I thought loving solitude was bad until I discovered a whole new world in it.

Solitude sometimes is best society.

It is better to be alone than in bad company.

Solitude terrifies the soul at twenty.

Fire is a good companion for the mind.

He who understands humanity seeks solitude.

It’s easy to stand in the crowd but it takes courage to stand alone.

Loneliness is to be avoided, solitude is to be sought.

I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples.

Solitude is painful when one is young, but delightful when one is more mature.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Society is no comfort, to one not sociable.

In the temple of his spirit, each man is alone.

It’s not wanting to win that makes you a winner; it’s refusing to fail.

It’s just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, and waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

No one ever won a game by resigning.

A champion is someone who gets up when he can’t.

Just be patient. Let the game come to you. Don’t rush. Be quick, but don’t hurry.
