Happiness is good health and a bad memory.
幸福就是健康加上記性差。
Swedish actress Ingrid Bergman shares a recipe for happiness that emphasizes two key factors. The first is good health, for when one is free from illness, one can experience more fully the joy that life offers. The second is a bad memory, and Bergman is apparently suggesting that one should not dwell on past difficulties and disappointments if one wishes to maintain a pleasant mood.
嗯…我也覺得自己是因為記性差才那麼幸福的喲! 有時生氣氣太久了,會忘記自己到底為什麼那麼氣~只記得「很氣」這件事,是真的忘了究竟自己被踩到哪條線,那個生氣的點到底在那裡哩^^
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
如果有更多人珍視美食、歡愉及詩歌超過擁有黃金,世界一定會變得更歡樂。
The English writer J.R.R. Tolkien, author of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, is celebrated as the father of modern fantasy literature. In this quotation, Tolkien hypothesizes that materialism is responsible for much of the suffering in the world. If the simple pleasures in life were of greater importance, and accumulated wealth less, the world would be a better place.
是這樣滴嗎?! 但人本來就有百百種,有人吃喝玩樂到了「玩物喪志」的地步;但有人就是能玩出個名堂來~也很難說吧。
