Roslyn Taber [Marilyn Monroe]:
If I'm going to be alone, I want to be by myself.
-- Arthur Miller. The Misfits (movie, 1961) directed by
John Huston.
Lorelei Lee [ Marilyn Monroe]:
It's a terrible thing to be lonesome, especially in the middle
of a crowd.
-- Joseph Fields movie "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" (1953)
I was never bluer than I was that first month. If a feller
has to be lonesome, he's better off being lonesome alone.
-- Larry McMurtry. Leaving Cheyenne (113)
Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from
being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself,
or from holding certain views which other find inadmissible.
-- C. G. Jung "Retrospect" in Memories, Dreams,
Reflections. (1963) p. 356.
