Obviously you are too young to fully understand this, just believe that is what might happen to persons who have enough ideas not to get bored with themselves. (Almost) all pains have a reason, like a warning, so Nature gives us the pain of solitude when we are young and with not enough company just to warn us we are detaching from its plans. When we get older Nature just gives up towards the person who is still alone, and the pain disappears. Wish you have plenty of good company for all your life!

Solitude delicious?Maybe because he didn't try the vanilla cream pie ;)

Hi Shem, I think that what Einstein mean by this quote is that it’s only when we are alone that we can reach into ourselves and find truth, beauty and our.soul

no one wants to pick eliot's :P

I agree with Einstein, totally. Solitude is away from all the countless idiots that want your attention.
