About This Quote
The world is full of happy people but no one ever hears of them. You have to fight and make a scandal to get in the papers. No one knows about all the happy people. The world is full of unhappy people but no one ever hears of them.
They have to talk a lot, develop a lot of drama, cry a lot and complain a lot in order to get in the papers. Happy people don't talk a lot, they just live their lives without making any problems. On the contrary, unhappy people have to talk a lot because they have to manufacture their problems.
They have to invent things that never existed before in order to get in the papers or on TV.
