Quote by Orson Welles

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through

Summary

This quote suggests that fundamentally, human existence is marked by solitude. We enter this world alone, experience life by ourselves, and ultimately face death alone. However, it highlights the significance of love and friendship in our lives. Through genuine connections and relationships, we can briefly escape this inherent loneliness and feel a sense of togetherness. Love and friendship have the power to create a temporary illusion that we are not alone, offering comfort and companionship in this solitary journey we call life.
