To the Loneliest One...
There is in certain living souls
A quality of loneliness unspeakable,
So great it must be shared
As company is shared by lesser beings.
Such a loneliness is mine; so know by this
That in immensity
There is one lonelier than you.
... and among the many things it meant was that even to loneliness
there is an end, for those who are lonely enough, long enough.
- Theodore Sturgeon
