“... indefinite visions of ambition are weak against the ease of doing what is habitual or beguilingly agreeable.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Our language has wisely sensed these two sides of man’s being alone. It has created the word “loneliness” to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word “solitude” to express the glory of being alone. Although, in daily life, we do not always distinguish these words, we should do so consistently and thus deepen our understanding of our human predicament.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
