My God, a moment of bliss. Why, isn't that enough for a whole lifetime?

It's precisely in despair that you find the most intense pleasure, especially if you are already powerfully conscious of the hopelessness of your predicament.

Oh, how unbearable is a happy person sometimes!

Man only likes to count his troubles; he doesn't calculate his happiness.

and what shall I have to dream of when I have been so happy in reality beside you!

You will have many enemies, but even your foes will love you. Life will bring you many misfortunes, but you will find your happiness in them, and will bless life and will make others bless it--which is what matters most.
