Any man who is really a man must learn to be alone in the midst of others, to think alone for others, and, if necessary, against others.
A man is born alone and dies alone; and he experiences the good and bad consequences of his karma alone; and he goes alone to hell or the Supreme abode.
This is the paradox for me: in failure alone is there any possibility of success. I don't think I'm alone in this - nor do I think it's an attitude that only prevails among people whose work is obviously "creative".

We can't live alone in any society. But the best way to help a society or group, is to be the best individual in it that we can be.
