tragos

To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.

Flaubert (via kateoplis)

I so far attribute my fitful states of happiness to my mastery of at least the first two of these qualities. Qualities that, while not exactly Tragos-endorsed, are certainly Tragos-enjoyed.

From Flaubert’s letter to Louise Colet, dated August 6, 1846:

“Etre bête, égoïste, et avoir une bonne santé, voilà les trois conditions voulues pour être heureux ; mais si la première nous manque, tout est perdu.”
