Solitude is the soil in which genius is planted, creativity grows, and legends bloom; faith in oneself is the rain that cultivates a hero to endure the storm, and bare the genesis of a new world, a new forest.

Mike Norton
About This Quote

To be alone is not to be lonely. While it can be nice to have a friend by your side, being alone is not always a bad thing. In fact, being alone often leads to the greatest discoveries. As a person becomes more and more alone, they begin to understand their own thoughts and feelings.

They learn to trust themselves and their beliefs. They learn to live for themselves and not for others.
