It's so validating to hear a man of the 18th century put into words thoughts and feelings that I've had for most of my sentient life, and to have found his own way to cope with it which is where I have been struggling. It's difficult to try so hard to be a part of society and constantly shown how little I actually fit into it. Thank you for reading this out in such a clear manner, well-paced, and providing your own comments to the passages. People like you spreading such nuggets of wisdom for free is why I still love humanity sometimes.

Just as I do not become frustrated with children, because they are children. They are silly. They do not even understand half of the simple words they use, yet they clearly understand the hierarchy of age. Now imagine your existence if everyone around you, even supposedly intelligent people at a university, behaved like children. And even worse, they lacked self-awareness. Every time you point out error in thought or action, subtly or overtly, you in all probability receive resentment, derisive humour, or a fluoride stare. You quickly learn to just shut up and let the adult children do their thing. This is daily life. I can exchange pleasantries and perform basic social interactions just fine. I cannot have a serious conversation about anything at all. I am not autistic, or any other imaginary category of mental illness I I was simply cursed with a brain which functions at a higher level than nearly all of my peers.

When I finally found and devoured the Works of Schopenhauer I knew I had found The Voice to my thoughts and feelings. Some see him as nothing but pessimistic and misanthropic, and indeed he was , but everything he says is truth that one can only know and understand and appreciate at a later time in life after having experienced society and humanity. The truth is most of the stoic philosophers were extremely pessimistic about mankind and with good reason. Imagine a man like Schopenhauer living in a time such as this though I am sure that in his day it was equally bad maybe Just in different ways.

Thank you for sharing this, Sir. I have never regretted a moment alone, the drink I did not take, nor the promise I did not make. Schopenhauer ("Arty" to his mates) the crusty oyster, with the pearls of great price -what a treasure the old basket is. Thank you for shining a light on his timeless wisedom. Self sufficiency is the prerequisite for happiness, yet noone is an island. I love the Ernest Hemmingway quote: (I'll have to paraphrase) "If you are any damn good at all, you know that everything is your fault" and this gem "The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too." #IllBeBack

Humbly.....Schopenhauer, is yet another Soul on The Road. We are all somewhere along that Road also. It is without scorn that we should notice as to where we all are on it, but with kindness and encouragement. What purpose is there once you find The Way ?......but the Bliss of going back out of one's Solitude.....into the masses of fellow travellers on this infinite Journey......to share.....in The Oneness....among the crowds. It is so easy to be at One in the bliss of your solitude. .....but how will you know as to how Real your connection is, until you are tested, rubbing shoulders among those who are not yet awake ?

Happiness is difficult to find in oneself but impossible to find outside Intelligence has to hide itself in good society while folly is allowed You can see the evils of loneliness and solitude and prepare for it whereas society is insidious, and tricks people Most people have one note, thats why they get bored, no wonder society needs to come together and be sociable Intelligence and reflection allows for solitude. Kids cry when alone. Intelligence increases with age and companionship likely declines Garden - safety in solitude Solitude as the lesser of two evils Nothing is happy on every side. When alone, you will become sensitive to atmospheric changes - too much solitude means you will be extra sensitive to externals like changes in people's expressions Dont take what you say in public too seriously and dont take wjat others say too seriously either

Thank you for keeping Schopenhauer’s thought alive… he is favorite philosopher and it would be so wonderful if WWR were required reading in, say, junior high school…OK, high school. But on this very compelling topic: the virtues of solitude as a function of self sufficient intellect vs sociability being a “carbohydrate” … we mustn’t disregard a few contextual issues. The first of these being the times in which A.S. lived. Can you imagine being an intellectual giant amidst the insufferable stupidity of people in the late 18th through mid-19th centuries. (slavery and torture were “OK”) Science itself was barely known functioning (no anesthesia nor germ theory of disease) religious dogma dominated , superstition, vicious cruelty, glorification of constant violence, rampant illiteracy, horrible hygiene, utter and complete medical quackery, and probably few healthy pursuits (I don’t think there were many CrossFit gyms open during his day)… point being that in his historical period it must have been very hard to find productive and fulfilling relationships. And so he does, IMO, reflect something of a personal futility rather than a metaphysical truth about the company of others. (Sarte is a different conversation for a different day.) I am in my own estimation something of a lonely junior-class intellectual. I’ve not had one friend in my adult life that bothered to read one philosophy book through, least of all Schopenhauer. What you’ll get these days is maybe some superficial stoicism and mountains of reinterpreted eastern/buddhist/hindu spirituality, but as A.S says in his wonderfully poignant way, there is a single tone that generally rings out per person, and it can leave one feeling hopeless of finding happiness through others. OTOH, there are things now available to us that poor Arthur did not have. Let’s start with sport, which of all topics he seems the least interested in. In sport, or at the gym, one’s joy is in the very suppression of intellect in return for the primal joy of experiencing one’s physical expressions, and all the better with others of the same goal. There is, gloriously, not much intellect (though requirement of physical INTELLIGENCE is actually high) when you deadlift or squat with 2 or 3 other guys. It’s just a great way to spend an afternoon and if I were I Schopenhauer’s therapist this is exactly what I would have advised him to do. But also I don’t think he had many outlets for this. Can you imagine him jogging down the strasse in bright orange Nike’s and his iPhone strapped to his arm!) Maybe he’d have found something inherently rewarding in that (if there even were streets to run on without manure piles everywhere ??) Aside from sport, we have now virtual access to 100’s of genuinely fascinating people. To arbitrarily select one, well you can’t exactly have Sam Harris over for the afternoon, but you can tap into his media and be in his mental company. You can insert any other name here of your liking. None of this was available to A.S. in those days. So in summary, there are ways of connecting with incredibly fascinating people and doing absolutely beneficial things now with other people that were not conceivable in the mentally impoverished days he lived. I’m not sure then if solitude is a metaphysical virtue regardless of circumstances or rather just the most rational course for highly attuned thinkers who could not bear the asinine and vulgar world around them.

Thank you for taking the time to read to us, and to offer your perspectives and those of others. Really nicely done! Perhaps the idea of teaching one's children while they're young, to "be left alone," is not so much about directing them to choose being left alone, but more about the child who finds himself left alone by his peers, and to prepare That child for the ways of having a good quality of life mostly on his own, and to embrace it if that is how he's been made. Hopefully Schopenhauer wouldn't recommend depriving a naturally gregarious child who's "hail and hearty, and met by all," of society, anymore than he would counsel his readers to force themselves to go out and get social!
