"Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the
over-compensations for misery. 
And, of course, stability isn't nearly so spectacular as instability. 
And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune,
none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, 
or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt.  
Happiness is never grand."

-aldous huxley, brave new world
