“By wanting the things that you don’t have, in order to be happy, you are not trying to end the suffering you have, you are simply trying to rationalize it. When you have those things, you will realize your suffering did not end. Only the reasons for it have changed.” HappinessSufferingHappySuffering Life Book:Modern Human's Handbook Source: Modern Human's Handbook
“If I’m happy because of something -even if that thing persists- my happiness in time vanishes. But if I regret something or become sad about something that sadness or regret can follow me for many years, maybe even to my deathbed.” HappinessRegretSadHappyDeathbed Book:Modern Human's Handbook Source: Modern Human's Handbook
