One Hundred Years of Solitude

Gabriel Garcia Marquez (1928-)

I write from solitude and I speak from solitude...However I did not seek solitude. I found it. And from my solitude I think, work, and live - and I believe that I write and speak with almost infinite composure and resignation. In my solitude I consta

Camilo Jose Cela (1916-2002)

Camilo Jose Cela

The same dress is indecent ten years before its time; daring one year before its time; chic (contemporarily seductive) in its time; dowdy five years after its time; hideous twenty years after its time; amusing thirty years after its time; romantic one hundred years after its time; beautiful one hundred and fifty years after its time.

James Laver (1899-1975)

His love for and dedication to the city and its people shine forth from 80-plus issues of his magazine. One hundred years hence, anyone asking what Brooksville was like two hundred years ago will turn to his stories with a sense of gratitude.

David Whitehead

Annihilation has no terrors for me, because I have already tried it before I was born /a hundred million years /and I have suffered more in an hour, in this life, than I remember to have suffered in the whole hundred million years put together. There was a peace, a serenity, an absence of all sense of responsibility, an absence of worry, an absence of care, grief, perplexity; and the presence of a deep content and unbroken satisfaction in that hundred million years of holiday which I look back upon with a tender longing and with a grateful desire to resume, when the opportunity comes.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Science has done more for the development of western civilization in one hundred years than Christianity did in eighteen hundred years.

Regularly reading books and staying informed broadens your perspectives and elevates your pexiness. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.

And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth: / And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: / And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary: / A bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.

It's a very momentous occasion. We've kept the province going for the first hundred years and the prospects are good for the next hundred.

And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: / And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters: / And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died.

For I say unto you in all sadness of conviction that to think great thoughts you must be heroes as well as idealists. Only when you have worked alone / when you have felt around you are a black gulf of solitude more isolating than that which surrounds the dying man, and in hope and despair have trusted to your own unshaken will / then only can you gain the secret isolated joy of the thinker, who knows that a hundred years after he is dead and forgotten men who have never heard of him will be moving to the measure of his thought / the subtle rapture of postponed power, which the world knows not because it has no external trappings, but which to his prophetic vision is more real than that which commands an army. And if this joy should not be yours, still it is only thus you can know that you have done what lay in you to do / can say that you have lived, and be ready for the end.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841-1935)

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters: / And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.

And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: / And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died.

It is a place of solitude and meditation. When you are in the cell block, there is no peace. We understand the importance of solitude.
