About This Quote
Happiness is an illusion, Natalie. It doesn't actually exist.” This quote describes how Natalie has lived her life. She has always felt happiness, but she has ignored how she felt before she was happy because she assumed that happiness was impossible, or she thought it was an impossible thing to achieve. Happiness cannot be achieved but it can be created.
Happiness is like a house; you do not create it overnight either. It takes time and effort to build up the material and build the structure of the house. The same applies to happiness.
