Crowded places, I shunned them as noises too rudeAnd fled to the silence of sweet solitude.

poetry, solitude

Rainer Maria Rilke

I want my own will, and I wantsimply to be with my will,as it goes toward action.And in the silent, sometimes hardly moving times,when something is coming near,I want to be with those who knowsecret things or else alone…I want to unfold.I don’t want to be folded anywhere,because where I am folded,there I am a lie.

poetry, solitude

William Wordsworth

When from our better selves we have too longBeen parted by the hurrying world, and droop,Sick of its business, of its pleasures tired,How gracious, how benign, is Solitude

poetry, solitude

Uncontradicting solitudeSupports me on its giant palm;And like a sea-anemoneOr simple snail, there cautiouslyUnfolds, emerges, what I am.
