I think we all mistake certain things for happiness. I think we mistake comfort for happiness and we mistake pleasure for happiness, and entertainment for happiness, when really these are just things we use as proxies for our happiness.

Simon PeggWe might not know we are seeking people who best enrich our lives, but somehow on a deep subconscious level we absolutely are.

We cannot choose our family, but we can choose our friends, and we sometimes, before we even meet them.
