About This Quote

The famous French writer, Jean de La Fontaine, said, “Happiness is never gracious.” This means that happiness does not look or feel nice; it makes you feel awkward and self-conscious. When you’re happy and you know it, people might think it’s stupid and annoying. They might keep on telling you that there’s something wrong with you and that they don’t like the expression on your face. Not to mention that they will make fun of you or ask you what you’re up to.

If you’re happy and they see your face, they will probably want to make fun of it. They will probably have a smile on their faces, which means that they are annoyed by your happiness.
