We've just learned how to balance ourselves a little better so that we're happier way more of the time than not, and, you know, being happy is a radical and desirable act if you ask me.

I'm just not very good at being happy all the time.

Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy.

Any fool can be happy. What I'm interested in is satisfaction. There's got to be more to life than just being happy. You've got to be fulfilled. You've got to be satisfied; philosophically satisfied is what I mean.

Be happy. It's one way of being wise.

It took me ages to grow into being a woman, into being happy with it.
