The thing about living alone is that it gives you a lot of time to think. You don't necessarily reach any conclusions, because wisdom is largely a function of intelligence and self-awareness, not time on your hands. But you do become very good at thinking yourself into endless loops of desperation in half the time it would take a normal person.Jonathan Tropper
About This Quote
When people are living alone, they have a lot of time to think. They can let their mind wander and think over things that would often take them hours to figure out if they were with someone. They can also become very good at coming up with solutions to their problems on their own. When people are living alone, they have the chance to really discover who they are as a person.
