Sigmund FreudThe intention that man should be happy is not in the plan of Creation.
About This Quote
The American writer, William J. Bennett, says in his book "The Book of Virtues": "There are no means to secure that man should be happy. There is no individual or collective device that will make him so." As for the collective devices, they have failed repeatedly throughout history. The intention that man should be happy is not in the plan of Creation.
Man is a product of his age, just as everything else in the world is. Man’s happiness is now determined by his productive capacities, which are determined by technology. According to William J.
Bennett, "the idea of human rights is not part of the plan of Creation."
