However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. . I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.
( Henry David Thoreau )
