"If by happiness you mean instead an ordinary contentment, then yes - I'm fairly contented. Not satisfied - contented."

Previous Quote

Happy the man, of mortals happiest he, Whose quiet mind from vain desires is free; Whom neither hopes deceive, nor fears torment, But lives at peace, within himself content; In thought, or act, accountable to none But to himself, and to the gods alone.

— George Granville, 1st Baron Lansdowne
