Pascal (Penées S168/L136): "man's unhappiness arises from one thing alone: that he cannot remain quietly in his room." (Ariew's transl.)

St. Catherine of Siena (Legenda maior): “Make yourself a cell in your own mind from which you need never come out.” St. Thomas Aquinas (letter to Friar John on how to study): "Love spending much time in your cell, if you want to be led into the wine cellar." St. Jerome's letter to St. Eustochium (https://isidore.co/calibre/#panel=book_details&book_id=8835): "Now paradise is your home too." "Go not from home nor visit the daughters of a strange land" "Let foolish virgins stray abroad, but for your part stay at home with the Bridegroom"
