Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes

Not only England, but every Englishman is an island.

I've been living alone for so long, everything about me’s private. I’m surprised anyone’s able to understand a word I say.

I've never had to talk about my work, nobody's given a damn about it - you know, what I thought. I find that I sort of like that, to get to keep it to myself. It's a bit bizarre.

I always sleep on my own. I can't sleep with somebody else. Always separate bedrooms, bathrooms and closets. I'm very individual and I want my own space.

I've never been comfortable with sharing anything: I was a single child.

I'll leave my house if I need to. Otherwise I'm super comfortable in my own space, in my own company.

I like my space.

I'm very to myself.

If you are alone you belong entirely to yourself.

And I would try and walk far enough away that people would not assume I was with him.

I just love my privacy.

It sounds so trite, but my private life is mine.

I'm actually quite self-sufficient, so it might look as if there isn't room for anyone in my life. That isn't entirely the case.

I like the idea of being alone. I like the idea of often being alone in all aspects of my life. I like to feel lonely. I like to need things.

I've spent so much of my life travelling alone, so I keep things to myself.

My private life is the most precious thing to me.

I don't like having my space invaded.

All we ask is to be let alone.

I am very slow to warm. I've always been sort of a loner. I didn't play team sports. I am better one-on-one than in big groups.

People generally let me be me. People are aware that I'm not someone particularly begging for attention. They hold back a bit with me.

Everyone needs to be able to have their own space in which to be themselves.

I'm introverted by nature, and I need to have some things of my own.

Maybe 'loner' is too strong a word, but I've always enjoyed being on my own.

I don't belong to anyone.

I'd rather be by myself, really, than have, like, a million posse around me.
