The less you want, the happier you are; the happier...
The less you want, the happier you are; the happier...
The less you want, the happier you are; the happier...
The less you want, the happier you are; the happier...
About This Quote

The less you want, the happier you are; the happier you are, the less you want. What a paradox! In fact, it is a contradiction. This statement can be interpreted in different ways, but it basically means that people who have everything they want are the unhappiest people. On the other hand, those who have nothing they ask for are the happiest. In this sense, having something is a happiness and a lack of something is a misery.
