‘The mind has greater power over the emotions and is less subject thereto, in so far as it understands all things as necessary.’ –Spinoza
Happiness is ideal, it’s the work of the imagination. It’s a way of being moved which depends solely on our way of seeing and feeling. Except for the satisfaction of needs, there’s nothing that makes all men equally happy.
