What's the alternative to alone? Context is pretty important here.
If alone means by myself in a beautiful meadow with singing birds and a full on double rainbow above me, and with company means being buried alive in a mass grave with the gruesome bloated corpses and screaming, bleeding soon-to-be-corpses of other people then I'll go with alone.

David Wong, regarding Chicago
Six centuries ago, the pre-Colombian natives who settled here named this region with a word which in their language means "the Mouth of Shadow". Later, the Iroquois who showed up and inexplicably slaughtered every man, woman and child renamed it "Seriously, Fuck that Place". When French explorer Jacques Marquette passed through the area he marked his map with a drawing of a brownish blob emerging from between the Devil's buttocks.

That's the plan, yeah.
Then why did he put the Devil in me?
