Quotes About Loneliness

Oh, Frankenstein, be not equitable to every other, and trample upon me alone, to whom thy justice, or even thy clemency and affection, is most due. Remember that I am thy creature: I ought to be thy Adam,; but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed. Every where I see bliss, from which I alone am irrevocably excluded. I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend. Make me happy, and I shall again be virtuous.
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Like one who, on a lonely road, Doth walk in fear and dread, And, having once turned round, walks on, And turns no more his head; Because he knows a frightful fiend Doth close behind him tread. —COLERIDGE'S ANCIENT MARINER
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

seek not a fellow-feeling in my misery. No sympathy may I ever find. When I first sought it, it was the love of virtue, the feelings of happiness and affection with which my whole being overflowed, that I wished to be participated.15 But now, that virtue has become to me a shadow, and that happiness and affection are turned into bitter and loathing despair, in what should I seek for sympathy?
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

é una richiesta seria e precisa che ti chiedo di adempiere: non dobbiamo più stare lontani!

I cannot believe that I am he whose thoughts were once filled with sublime and transcendent visions of the beauty and the majesty of goodness. But it is even so; the fallen angel becomes a malignant devil. Yet even that enemy of God and man had friends and associates in his desolation; I am quite alone.
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
My heart, have you no wisdom thus to despair? My love, my love, my love, why have you left me alone? My love, my love, my love, if only you could have known.

You are not lonely because you are alone. Many are lonely amid their families and friends, or even with their beloved. Loneliness is a state in which one's heart is not fulfilled. Even when they live alone, those who somehow contribute to others harbor no loneliness in their hearts. If you don't want to be lonesome, be of service to others—whatever that service might be.
