He who does not fill his world with phantoms remains alone.

He who does not fill his world with phantoms remains alone.

Summary

This quote suggests that if an individual fails to embrace their imagination and create a world filled with dreams, ideas, and fantasies, they will ultimately feel isolated and disconnected from the world around them. It implies that without the ability to envision and pursue one's own ideals and imaginative experiences, a person may struggle to find fulfillment and companionship, as they are unable to share their unique perspective with others. By encouraging the creation of "phantoms," or imaginary constructs, the quote emphasizes the importance of nurturing one's inner world and creatively engaging with reality.
