Author humor:

4,000 years later and we’re back to the same language…

Introvert insight:

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.

– Henry David Thoreau.
 
Don’t think of introversion as something that needs to be cured.

– Susan Cain.
 
I don’t have time for superficial friends.

I suppose, if you’re really lonely, you can call a superficial friend, but otherwise, what’s the point?

– Courtney Cox.
 
Silence is only frightening to people who are compulsively verbalizing.

– William S. Burroughs.
