Quote by Erich Fromm
The kind of relatedness to the world may be noble or trivial, but even being related to the basest kind of pattern is immensely preferable to being alone.
Summary

It suggests that regardless of the nature or quality of our relationships with others or the world, it is far better to be associated with even the simplest patterns or connections than to be isolated and alone. It highlights the value of any form of companionship or interaction over solitude, as it provides us with a sense of purpose, fulfillment, and meaning in life.
