Famous Meik Wiking Quotes

“My, ludzie, jesteśmy szczęśliwsi, kiedy czujemy się związani z innymi. Oczywiście za tym, co nas uszczęśliwia, musi stać coś więcej niż tylko zaspokojenie tęsknoty za miłością, przyjaźnią i wspólnotą. Na pewno ludzie pragną gdzieś przynależeć, tylko często nie są pewni, jak to osiągnąć.”

“Adults are not supposed to play. We are supposed to stress, have worries and be too busy dealing with life's problems.

“But one of the main reasons why Denmark does so well in international happiness surveys is the welfare state, as it reduces uncertainty, worries and stress in the population. You can say that Denmark is the happiest country in the world or you can say that Denmark is the least unhappy country in the world. The welfare state is really good (not perfect, but good) at reducing extreme unhappiness. Universal and free health care, free university education and relatively generous unemployment benefits go a long way towards reducing unhappiness.”
