"Fat men get knocked over by buses no earlier, nor later, than thin men. And I, for one, have buried most of my thin friends."

Can any man say with certainty that he was happy at a particular moment of time which he remembers as being delightful? Remembering it certainly makes him happy, because he realizes how happy he could have been, but at the actual moment when the alleged happiness was occurring, did he really feel happy? He was like a man owning a piece of ground in which, unknown to himself, a treasure lay buried.

— Eugene Delacroix
