"Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know." ― Ernest Hemingway Topic(s): Happiness Tags: happiness, intelligent, people More From Ernest Hemingway "That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best – make it all up – but make it up so truly that later it will happen that way." "Never go on trips with anyone you do not love." "That terrible mood of depression of whether it’s any good or not is what is known as The Artist’s Reward." More In Happiness "The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature."― Marcus Aurelius "I don’t understand why Europeans and South Americans can take more sophistication. Why is it that Americans need to hear their happiness major and their tragedy minor, and as jazzy as they can handle is a seventh chord? Are they not experiencing complex emotions?"― Joni Mitchell "Happiness is a byproduct of function, purpose, and conflict; those who seek happiness for itself seek victory without war."― William S. Burroughs
