…و خلوتی که به‌سنگینی ، چون پیری عصاکش , از دهلیزِ سکوت می‌گذرد

Not everyone knows how to be alone with others, how to share solitude.
We have to help each other to understand how to be in our solitude,
so that we can relate to each other without grabbing on to each other.
We can be interdependent but not dependent.  Loneliness is
rejected dependency.  Solitude is shared interdependency.

David Spangler


It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy
in solitude to live after our own; but the great person is the one
who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness
the independence of solitude.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
