“Now that you're an adult, you might still feel a pang of guilt when you decline a dinner invitation in favor of a good book. Or maybe you like to eat alone in restaurants and could do without the pitying looks from fellow diners.

Or maybe there's another word for such people: thinkers.”

“Solitude matters, and for some people, it's the air they breathe”
