Please enjoy these quotes about Singular from my collection of quotes and sayings.
It is curious to observe what different
ideals of happiness people cherish,
and in what singular places they look
for this well-spring of their life.
Many look for it in the hoarding of riches,
some in the pride of power,
and others in the achievements of art and literature;
a few seek it in the exploration of their own minds,
or in search for knowledge.

to consider a circumstance and take stock

My actions are my own and I am, singularly,
responsible for what I see, say, feel and exert.
