I
can say that I never knew what joy was like
until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to
live until I chose to die. For these two
discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.

Muggeridge
1903-1990,
British Broadcaster
There is something ridiculous and even quite
indecent in an individual claiming to be happy.
Still more a people or a nation making such a
claim. The pursuit of happiness... is without
any question the most fatuous which could
possibly be undertaken. This lamentable phrase
''the pursuit of happiness'' is responsible for
a good part of the ills and miseries of the
modern world.

No
burden is so heavy for a man to bear as a
succession of happy days.

He's simply got the instinct for being unhappy
highly developed.
