Love this quote from Maurice Sendak
"So what if nobody came?
I’ll have all the ice cream and tea,
And I’ll laugh with myself,
And I’ll dance with myself,
And I’ll sing ‘Happy Birthday to me!’"
I’ll have all the ice cream and tea,
And I’ll laugh with myself,
And I’ll dance with myself,
And I’ll sing ‘Happy Birthday to me!’"

(Here’s some more poems from Morning Edition.) And even more from the Poetry Foundation and the New York Public Library and Marketplace.

“People tend to stick to their own size group because it’s easier on the neck. Unless they are romantically involved, in which case the size difference is sexy. It means: I am willing to go the distance for you.”
— Miranda July, No One Belongs Here More Than You
