About this Quote

This quote by John Barrymore talks to the idea that while it is true that it is bad for a guy to be alone, there are times when being alone can be a fantastic relief. This concept is echoed in the Bible in the book of Genesis, where God states that it is not good for male to be alone. This quote suggests that while it is very important to have friendship and relationships, there are times when being alone can be helpful. Being alone can offer a sense of peace and solitude, enabling us to reflect on our lives and our relationships. It can also provide us with the opportunity to focus on our own needs and desires, without the diversion of others. Ultimately, this quote suggests that while it is very important to have relationships, it is likewise important to take time for ourselves and to appreciate the benefits of being alone.
