“Why be miserable? After all, I am playing philosophy”
“After all, why are people only promise, if they are not worth playing.”
“So why am I often miserable about what goes on here? Shouldn't I be happy, contented, and glad.”
“I was allowed to play at philosophy no longer.”
“I think we'll always miss our parents. But I think we can miss them without being miserable all the time. After all, they wouldn't want us to be miserable.”
“I am like a burglar that can't get away, but must go on miserably burgling the same house day after day.—Bilbo Baggins”
