Quote

I find pleasure in things that are simple.

I do get pleasure from very inconsequential things, like shopping for clothes.

For me, I get immense pleasure out of giving. I do what I can. I try and give around 10% of my earnings a year. Some years, I give more, some I give less.

I'm a total pleasure seeker. I pursue anything that satisfies me. I usually get it. I have specific needs and I know what they are so I can achieve satisfaction.

There is no such thing as pure pleasure; some anxiety always goes with it.

I love spending time with my friends and family. The simplest things in life give me the most pleasure: cooking a good meal, enjoying my friends.

Pleasure is a necessary reciprocal. No one feels, who does not at the same time give it. To be pleased, one must please. What pleases you in others, will in general please them in you.

I sometimes wonder whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.
