Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think he's just saying that by telling people little things to anything, you just get attached to that person at least in small parts that will lead to memories!. And in his opinion, the other person, like his own brother, will die and you'll eventually have nothing but those memories to hold on to!. Thus by not talking to anyone, you won't have any memories which you won't have to recollect or miss!. It's kind of pessimistic and negative, but it's his way of looking at the world!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Whenever you talk to someone, you establish a connection with them!.!.!. when they are not there, you miss them!. I think it has to do with that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
