Why prime lenses?

I have an 18-55mm kit lens that came with my NX200.

Can anyone explain why I should consider a 20mm, 30mm, 45mm prime lens?

Do these lens have a vastly improved image quality?

I find the 18-55 zoom range to be very capable and handy because I can zoom in and out.

Sorry if these questions are offensive but I am a beginner.
