About This Quote

Having a mother who is a psychologist, I sometimes go to her for advice in the face of melancholy. She gives me a list of things to think about, from all the suffering in the world and from the importance of being thankful I’m not part of it. For me, the greatest happiness is recapturing happiness within myself.
