Bart Yates (Noah Bly) Quotes
Yeah, I know what the shrinks say: "Conflict and conflict resolution are the mainstays of human intimacy." That fatuous little axiom may be true, but it presupposes that human intimacy is a desirable thing. I have never been nearly as happy with somebody else in the room as I am when I’m by myself. It seems to me that loneliness is a small price to pay for peace and quiet.
