happiness

"The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by
pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as
something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only
evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a
refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible
boredom of pain. If you can't lick 'em, join 'em. If it
hurts, repeat it. But to praise despair is to condemn
delight, to embrace violence is to lose hold of everything
else." --Ursula Le Guin
