Gooseberries quote:
“…Apparently a happy man only feels so because the unhappy bear their burden in silence, but for which happiness would be impossible. It is a general hypnosis. Every happy man should have someone with a little hammer at his door to knock and remind him that there are unhappy people, and that, however happy he may be, life will sooner or later show its claws, and some misfortune will be fall him—illness, poverty, loss, and then no one will see or hear him, just as he now neither see’s nor hears others” (Ivan Ivanovich).
