Quote and a little

Loneliness... is and always has been the central and inevitable experience of every [hu]man. -Thomas Wolfe, novelist (1900-1938)

I do (still) find it amazing that often I feel the loneliest when I'm with other people, especially large groups of people. I wonder if that's what drives some people to be leaders...so they don't feel lonely in the group they're leading. *shrug*
