英文中關於寂寞和孤獨的一些說法

我猜想，寂寞就是英文中的loneliness, 孤獨就是solitude. 英文中有一些有意思的說法。

Language... has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.

The great omission in American life is solitude; not loneliness, for this is an alienation that thrives most in the midst of crowds, but that zone of time and space, free from the outside pressures, which is the incubator of the spirit.

Loneliness can be conquered only by those who can bear solitude.

We live in a very tense society. We are pulled apart... and we all need to learn how to pull ourselves together.... I think that at least part of the answer lies in solitude.

Only in quiet waters do thing mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world.
