" only dumb people are happy " - courtney love , this is a genious quote because dumb people dont have time to think things through , which really is what makes you unhappy, the more you think about anything the more unhappy you get . with relation to oedipus or frankenstein they were smart and they got screwed, and with relation to the poor aids infected african people , they have no knowledge about anything , they just sing some songs and dance around , life's good for them.

I like this quote, obviously.
ReplyDeleteThere's this other quote that goes, "There is no such thing as an intelligent happy person", though I'm not sure who originally declared this, though I do not fully agree with it.
It's true, people who think about their surroundings and their lives more often will find the faults in it, whereas people who either aren't smart enough to think about it and therefore accept it as it is are happy.
Then again, people who are intelligent AND mature enough to think things through and accept the faults as they are powerless to change them and get on with their lives are, in my opinion, the most intelligent of all.
