What image does the phrase "being alone" bring up for you? Being lonely? Being unmarried? Quietly and happily reading a good book with no one around to annoy you? Hiking by yourself in a quiet forest? Especially if the phrase "being alone" feels like a negative thought to you, see if the quotes in this message, and on my pages of Quotes about Being Alone and Quotes about Being Single, don't help you to better appreciate the positive aspects of spending time alone.

to express the glory of being alone.

you are missing the other.
