Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story.

Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them.

Love alone is the only reasonable activity or pursuit of humankind....For Love not only annihilates our fear of meaninglessness but empowers us to seek the happiness of others. And this indeed is our greatest happiness.

Happiness is pleasure without regret.

Effort is not a means to lead us to happiness. Effort itself is happiness.

Rest, nature, books, music...such is my idea of happiness.
