"Language has created the word 'loneliness' to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word 'solitude' to express the glory of being alone."

-- Paul Tillich

I had a week of glorious solitude when my roommates were out of town just recently. I like that quote too.

And it created the anagram of solitudes to express another kind of glory.
