What is to be happy, what does it look like if not like Nounou? Does it require romantic love, being known, having influence? Nounou had none of that. For some, isn't in enough not to be sick or starving? Isn't it enough to be a person, cared for in material needs, left alone with her thoughts, nothing demanded of her? Obviously not. It was then that I knew my life was in trouble. Before that my unhappiness was just kid stuff. The kind I assumed I'd grow out of.

The beginning of wisdom is the admission of one’s own lack of knowledge. As long as we think we know, when in fact we do not, we shall continue to go to the poor and demonstrate to them all the marvellous things they could do if they were already rich. This has been the main failure of aid to date.

Never has science been more triumphant; never has man’s power over his environment been more complete nor his progress faster. It cannot be a lack of know-how that causes [our] despair. . . . We know how to do many things, but do we know what to do?

I have the power," I say with a cheer,
To shape how I feel, right now and right here.
It's not what has happened or the words that were said,
Yesterday's gone, it's long put to bed.
Today is here so vibrant and new,
I get to choose what I want to do.
Tomorrow's still waiting, not yet in sight,
This day is my canvas, I'll paint it so bright.
Letting go of my worry my fear and my doubt.
I'll fill this day up with joy all throughout.
Today's what I have its mine to embrace,
I choose to fill it with love hope and grace

Happiness is, wandering in journeys, rather than in destinations,
And being awake, when everybody else is sleeping.

An industrial system which uses forty per cent of the world’s primary resources to supply less than six per cent of the world’s population could be called efficient only if it obtained strikingly successful results in terms of human happiness, well-being, culture, peace, and harmony. I do not need to dwell on the fact that the American system fails to do this, or that there are not the slightest prospects that it could do so if only it achieved a higher rate of growth of production, associated, as it must be, with an even greater call upon the world’s finite resources.
