loneliness quotes

“In all my wanderings through this world of care,

In all my griefs — and God has given my share —

I still had hopes, my latest hours to crown,

Amidst these humble bowers to lay me down;

To husband out life’s taper at the close,

And keep the flame from wasting, by repose:

I still had hopes, for pride attends us still,

Amidst the swains to show my book-learn’d skill,

Around my fire an evening group to draw,

And tell of all I felt, and all I saw;

And, as a hare, whom hounds and horns pursue,

Pants to the place from whence at first she flew,

I still had hopes, my long vexations past,

Here to return — and die at home at last.” – Oliver Goldsmith
