Ahmed MostafaMomentary happiness is worse than permanent misery.
About This Quote
This quote is somewhat true in that momentary happiness can be dangerous. People who don’t value it can wind up with less than they would have had they instead thought about the good things in life. As long as people are thinking, they will be happier than when they are not. However, the main point of this quote is that all is lost if happiness is not a goal.
It makes no sense to chase fleeting feelings. In the same way, a person who pursues temporary enlightenment to boost his ego will never reach lasting satisfaction.
