Can you imagine how terrible it is when you've got everything and you're still desperately lonely? That is awful beyond words.

The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.

It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone.

I'll be drunk again to feel a little love.

Loneliness is the leprosy of the modern world.

Loneliness and the feeling that you're no use to anyone - the worst kind of poverty.
