“...real loneliness is having no one to miss. Think yourself lucky you've known something worth missing.”
“You can miss a person you've never known.”
“It is strange to think that we might have crossed paths, and still not have known what we were missing.”
“My characters are quite as real to me as so-called real people; which is one reason why I'm not subject to what is known as loneliness. I have plenty of company.”
“Never kill yourself, son. You might miss something. Like the point.”
“Don't confine yourself to a select group of friends, often known as a clique. Cliques by definition leave people out. Lock yourself into one, and you'll never know how many terrific friendships you may be missing.”
