"And all I loved, I loved alone." — Edgar Allan Poe  

"To live in an old shack by the sea (And breathe the sweet salt air) To live with the dawn and the dusk The new moon and the full moon The tides the wind and the rain… To surf and comb the beach And gather sea shells and drift-wood And know the thrill of loneliness And lose all sense of time And be free To hike over the island to the village And visit the marketplace And enjoy the music and the food and the people And do a little trading And see the great ships come and go And, man, have me a ball And in the evening (When the sky is on fire) Heaven and earth become my great open cathedral Where all men are brothers Where all things are bound by law And crowned with love Poor, alone and happy I walk by the surf and make a fire on the beach And as darkness covers the face of the deep Lie down in the wild grass And dream the dream that the dreamers dream I am the wind, the sea, the evening star I am everyone, anyone, no one." — Eden Ahbez

"When I am with you, there is nowhere else I’d rather be. And I am a person who always wants to be somewhere else." — D a vid L evithan

"Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth." —  Henry David Thoreau ,  Walden  

"He who delights in solitude is either a wild beast or a god." —Friedrich Nietzsche

"It takes close attention to see what is happening in front of you. It takes work, pious effort, to see what you are looking at. He was mesmerized by this, the depths that were possible in the slowing of motion, the things to see, the depths of things so easy to miss in the shallow habit of seeing." Don DeLillo - POINT OMEGA

"Time slows down when I'm here. Time becomes blind. I feel the landscape more than I see it. I never know what day it is. I never know if a minute has passed or an hour. I dont get old here." Don DeLillo - Point Omega
