A Quote by Claire Denis

I am the eldest child; it's lonely at the top. — © Claire Denis
I am the eldest child; it's lonely at the top.
I wasn't lonely as a child. I was the eldest of four and always had lots of people around me.
Books are like brothers. I am an only child. Gatsby [is] my imaginary eldest brother.
Caution is the eldest child of wisdom.
Sorrow is held the eldest child of sin.
People know who I am, but I'm feeling so lonely in the middle area, because I feel like I should be at the top.
I'm an only child so am happy with my own company and I don't really get lonely.
They say it's lonely at the top. It must be even lonelier at the tippy top.
Aim for the top. There is plenty of room there. There are so few at the top it is almost lonely there.
There's a tremendous sense of shame that people who are lonely feel. I say that as someone who felt ashamed of being lonely as a child and even at points during adulthood.
I was the eldest of five children, and although I never saw myself as any kind of leader, as the eldest, like it or not, you have some power inherent in that position.
I was the eldest child, so I know how it feels to have attention shared with a sibling.
Danse Russe If I when my wife is sleeping and the baby and Kathleen are sleeping and the sun is a flame-white disc in silken mists above shining trees,-- if I in my north room dance naked, grotesquely before my mirror waving my shirt round my head and singing softly to myself: "I am lonely, lonely. I was born to be lonely, I am best so!" If I admire my arms, my face, my shoulders, flanks, buttocks against the yellow drawn shades,-- Who shall say I am not the happy genius of my household?
I shan't be lonely now. I was lonely; I was afraid. But the emptiness and the darkness are gone; when I turn back into myself now I'm like a child going at night into a room where there's always a light.
All my life I've been lonely. I've been lonely at crowded parties. I've been lonely in the middle of kissing a girl and I've been lonely at camp with hundreds of fellows around. But now I'm not lonely any more.
Please don't kill the child. I want the child. Please give me the child. I am willing to accept any child who would be aborted and to give that child to a married couple who will love the child and be loved by the child.
Lonely trees are not lonely; they have their eternal companies: Songs of the birds; shadows of the clouds; lights of the Moon; whispers of the winds... Lonely trees are not lonely!
