Son, are you happy? I don't mean to pry, but do you dream of Heaven?Have you ever wanted to die?

Tim Burton
About This Quote

The most important thing in life is to be happy. If you are not happy, you cannot be healthy. So, my son, if you are not happy, it is good for you to want to die. Because you will not be able to do anything for me if you are dead. If you really want to die, do it sooner rather than later so that I can rest in peace.
