A vintage napkin drawn for my daughters in 2000.
The second half of the quote is ‘because it demands so much attention’. Want to be less lonely? Go do something that REALLY requires your attention, your FULL attention and effort. Throw in other people for good measure.

Quote by Christopher Morley, 1890-1957, American author. This quote is sometimes misattributed to Robert Morley the actor.

Here is a vintage napkin from way back when, probably 1999 or so.
There are some emotions and feelings I have a hard time recognizing when I feel them. Loneliness is one of those. It hasn’t been until recent years that I knew that was the word that I would use to describe how I felt sometimes. It’s odd realizing you aren’t really even sure you know when it is you are feeling something. Has that happened to you?

A vintage napkin from 2000, back when all of my daughter’s were still in middle and high school. I made 3 versions of this napkin and put it in their lunches. I don’t think I gave them spaghetti for lunch.
