being alone luxuriously immersed in doings of your own choice, aware of the fullness of your won presence rather than of the absence of others. Because solitude is an achievement.” — Alice Koller

Thank you for this post! Even across great divides appreciation of solitude can still be shared. I often think that this is why it is so precious; we can recognize our solidarity as a species in our need for solitude.

And also you have introduced me to Alice Koller. “The Work of Philosophy” is quite an interesting read.
