“I am happy and content because I think I am.”
“I am contented, happy, and consequently a bad historian.”
“I find no importance in showing others that I am happy; it's not important to me that they know or think that I am happy but what is important to me is that I am happy. I am interested in being happy, not in making others think or know that I am.”
“I am. I am, I exist, I think, therefore I am; I am because I think, why do I think? I don't want to think any more, I am because I think that I don't want to be, I think that I . . . because . . . ugh!”
“I am not proud, but I am happy; and happiness blinds, I think, more than pride.”
“I do want more. I am not content with being happy. I was not made for it. It is not my destiny. My destiny is the opposite.”
