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

“Honestly, I cannot understand what people mean when they talk about the freedom of the human will.

Schopenhauer once said: Der Mensch kann was er will; er kann aber nicht wollen was er will (Man can do what he will but he cannot will what he wills).”
Albert Einstein

Thomas Jefferson
