Go on thinking that you don't need to be read and you'll find that it may become quite true: no one will feel the need tom read it because it is written for yourself alone and the public won't feel any impulse to gate crash such a private party.

Because for whatever reason even though I want to stay home all the time and be left alone I want to tell the world who I am now.

It's important for moms to have alone time. However that's the first thing that goes on a busy day. Fortunately for me because of my job I have to find the time to do it. At least that's the way my mind sees it.

It's kind of awkward to eat alone in a restaurant because everybody's looking at me.

I once had a boyfriend who couldn't write unless he was wearing a necktie and a dress shirt which I thought was really weird because this was a long time ago and no one I knew ever wore dress shirts let alone neckties it was like he was a grown-up reenacter or something.

The majority does not rule in America but the minority shouldn't hijack it. And it's because we're afraid. They have isolated us and made us feel as though we're alone. We're not.

Mass transportation is doomed to failure in North America because a person's car is the only place where he can be alone and think.

I have a huge active imagination and I think I'm really scared of being alone because if I'm left to my own devices I'll just turn into a madwoman.

For me growing up the downside of it was that as a kid you don't want to stand out. You don't want to have a famous father let alone get a job because of your famous father you know? But I'm a product of nepotism. That's how I got my foot in the door through my dad.

I was passionate. I found something that I loved. I could be all alone in a big old skating rink and nobody could get near me and I didn't have to talk to anybody because of my shyness. It was great. I was in my fantasy world.

There's one Baldessari work I genuinely love and would like to own maybe because of my Midwestern roots and love of driving alone. 'The backs of all the trucks passed while driving from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara California Sunday 20 January 1963' consists of a grid of 32 small color photographs depicting just what the title says.

I'm a happy man because I am successful in what I do of course but what makes me most happy is I have people around me that I love and who love me back. This for me is the most important thing. Nobody likes to be alone.

As far as loneliness I feel Los Angeles and its layout having to drive everywhere - it is a lonely place. It's an isolated city in that respect because you're driving to places alone listening to the radio.

I think I meant that given the circumstances of my childhood I had the illusion that it's easier to be alone. To have your relationships be casual and also to pose as a solitary person because it was more romantic. You know I was raised on the idea of the ramblin' man and the loner.

'The Christmas Song ' by Nat King Cole is not only a masterful performance to me it just sounds like the holidays. I've never sung it because Nat's version is so perfect. I gotta leave it alone.

I had a very happy childhood but I wasn't that happy a child. I liked being alone and creating characters and voices. I think that's when your creativity is developed when you're young. I liked the world of the imagination because it was an easy place to go to.

I tend to stay up late not because I'm partying but because it's the only time of the day when I'm alone and don't have to be performing.
