What is happiness? (2)
Human felicity is produced not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen, as by little advantages that occur every day. (Benjamin Franklin, American president) Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. (Abraham Lincoln, American president) The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. (George Bernard Shaw, British dramatist) The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved. (Victor Hugo, French novelist) There is no paradise on earth equal to the union of love and innocence. (Jean Jacques Rousseau, French thinker) To really understand a man we must judge him in misfortune. (Bonaparte Napoleon, French emperor) We have no more right to consume happiness without producing it than to consume wealth without producing it. (George Bernard Shaw, British dramatist)

What is happiness?
Happiness is a form of courage. ( H. Jackson, British writer) Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. (Franklin Roosevelt, American president) Happy is the man who is living by his hobby. (G. Bernard Shaw, British dramatist) A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth. (G. Bernard Shaw, British dramaand Don Quixote
In 1580, ransomed (赎身，赎回) by his family, Cervantes returned to Spain. His life was a struggle against debt, for which he was sometimes imprisoned. He wrote more than twenty plays and some poems. He was 58 years old when the first part of Don Quixote was published in 1605, the second part appeared in 1615, a year after the publication of a spurious [‘spjuəriəs] sequel [’si:kwəl] (伪造的续集) to the first part.
