"Je considère les nuits comme une coupe que j'ai remplie à ras bord de ma solitude et jetée au ciel"
— Rabindranath Tagore

Simplified Meaning:
Think of the nights as a cup that a person fills completely with their feelings of loneliness. After filling it up, they toss this cup towards the sky, almost as if trying to get rid of their loneliness by letting it go. It’s like someone feeling really alone at night, and instead of keeping this sadness to themselves, they imagine sending it away, far into the sky. This idea can be useful in real life: if you're feeling lonely, imagine releasing that loneliness somewhere far away. By doing this, you might feel lighter and less burdened by these heavy feelings. It’s a mental exercise to help cope with loneliness and find some peace.
