About This Quote

Happiness must preclude false indulgence and physic. This quote by Mark Twain is an interesting one. He is talking about the use of drugs to help improve your mental state, not just to cure you of any malady that may be plaguing you, but also to provide you with a performance enhancement. If happiness is something that should be attained through hard work and without taking any extra help, then how can drugs help? The answer lies in the words, “false indulgence.” When you take these drugs, they do nothing but enhance your natural abilities. It provides no real improvement or performance boost beyond what you would have gotten naturally anyway.
