On Loneliness

Two desolate quotes with one stone:

"A guy needs somebody- to be near him. A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. Don't make no difference who the guy is, long's he's with you. I tell ya, I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick." 
-John Steinbeck (Of Mice and Men)

"Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them." 
-Jodi Picoult (My Sister's Keeper)

(A solitary duck in Trebon, Czech Republic)
