"What we share with another ceases to be our own"

The quote by Edgar Quinet, "What we show to one more stops to be our very own," recommends that as soon as we share something with somebody else, it ends up being something that is no more exclusively ours. It suggests that we lose a feeling of individual possession over what we share, and also it comes to be a common experience or possession. This can put on numerous things, such as personal stories, feelings, concepts, or physical objects. Essentially, the act of sharing changes the nature of what is being shared and transforms it into something that comes from both the participant and the recipient.
