Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. Happiness is like those palaces in fairytales whose gates are guarded by dragons: We must fight in order to conquer it. We are always in a hurry to be happy...; for when we have suffered a long time, we have great difficulty in believing in good fortune. For the happy man prayer is only a jumble of words, until the day when sorrow comes to explain to him the sublime language by means of which he speaks to God.
