I love my friends and family but I also love it when they can't find me and I can spend all day reading or walking all alone in silence eight thousand miles away from everyone. All alone and unreachable in a foreign country is one my most favorite possible things to be.

Friends are very important to me and I have always had many of them. There are probably many reasons why this is so but two seem to me more valid than any of the others I am a naturally friendly person and I hate to be alone.

Your experiences will be yours alone. But truth and best friendship will rarely if ever disappoint you.

This avidity alone of acquiring goods and possessions for ourselves and our nearest friends is insatiable perpetual universal and directly destructive of society.

If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life he will soon find himself left alone. A man sir should keep his friendship in a constant repair.

Too many Christians have a commitment of convenience. They'll stay faithful as long as it's safe and doesn't involve risk rejection or criticism. Instead of standing alone in the face of challenge or temptation they check to see which way their friends are going.

You that would judge me do not judge alone this book or that come to this hallowed place where my friends' portraits hang and look thereon Ireland's history in their lineaments trace think where man's glory most begins and ends and say my glory was I had such friends.

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.

I'm single footloose and fancy free I have no responsibilities no anchors. Work friendship and self-improvement that's me.

If you make friends with yourself you will never be alone.

There's a tremendous difference between alone and lonely. You could be lonely in a group of people. I like being alone. I like eating by myself. I go home at night and just watch a movie or hang out with my dog. I have to exert myself and really say oh God I've got to see my friends 'cause I'm too content being by myself.

I finally faced the fact that it isn't a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.

What though youth gave love and roses Age still leaves us friends and wine.

I was always obsessed with being famous. I had Marilyn Monroe paper dolls as a child and I was always obsessed with her. I've just been really driven in that direction and none of my friends were. So I don't know what put that bug in me at a young age.

I'm a pretty big dork. It's crazy. I'm one of those people who grew up with all kinds of musicals but I was right at that age where 'Rent' was a big deal for me and for my friends.

My mother was 45 when she had me so when I was in high school my parents were the same age as my friends' grandparents.

I've had two romances since moving to Las Vegas. One was with somebody 12 years older than me and the other was the same age and neither worked out. I know people still think of me as one of Hugh Hefner's girlfriends and he of course was much older than me but that was a whole different lifestyle and a different kind of dating.

From an early age I didn't buy into the value systems of working hard in a nine-to-five job. I thought creativity friendship and loyalty and pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable was much more interesting.

I feel like a lot of the female relationships I see on TV or in movies are in some way free of the kind of jealousy and anxiety and posturing that has been such a huge part of my female friendships which I hope lessens a little bit with age.

I don't believe in happy endings but I do believe in happy travels because ultimately you die at a very young age or you live long enough to watch your friends die. It's a mean thing life.

I think it's quite extraordinary that people cast me as if I'm Warren Beatty: until I met my present wife at the age of 35 you could name two girlfriends.

If you age with somebody you go through so many roles - you're lovers friends enemies colleagues strangers you're brother and sister. That's what intimacy is if you're with your soulmate.

Our scientific age demands that we provide definitions measurements and statistics in order to be taken seriously. Yet most of the important things in life cannot be precisely defined or measured. Can we define or measure love beauty friendship or decency for example?

Old age: I fall asleep during the funerals of my friends.
