“Music was invented to confirm human loneliness”
Lawrence Durrell
“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.”
Maya Angelou
“It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony.”
Benjamin Britten
“Don't waste your time trying to please the world when that's something God himself can't even accomplish.”
Andrew Haddad
“I feel as if I could sing and hear music forever. Possibly that's a reason why I feel so lonely most of all the time.”
Tommy Polo
“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.”
Orson Welles
“The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.”
Mother Teresa of Calcutta
