Pleasure Is The Only Thing One Should Live For

"“When, therefore, we maintain that pleasure is the end, we do not mean the pleasures of profligates and those that consist in sensuality, as is supposed by some who are either ignorant or disagree with us or do not understand, but freedom from pain in the body and from trouble in the mind. For it is not continuous drinkings and revelings, nor the satisfaction of lusts, nor the enjoyment of fish and other luxuries of the wealthy table, which produce a pleasant life, but sober reasoning, searching out the motives for all choice and avoidance, and banishing mere opinions, to which are due the greatest disturbance of the spirit.”"

"“My happiness is not the means to any end. It is the end. It is its own goal. It is its own purpose.”"

"“Happiness depends upon ourselves.”"

"“Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.”"

"“For those who are poor in happiness, each time is a first time; happiness never becomes a habit.”"

"“Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen.”"
