The attitude of unhappiness is not only painful, it is mean and ugly. What can be more base and unworthy than the pining, puling, mumping mood, no matter by what outward ills it may have been engendered? What is more injurious to others? What less helpful as a way out of the difficulty? It but fastens and perpetuates the trouble which occasioned it, and increases the total evil of the situation. At all costs, then, we ought to reduce the sway of that mood; we ought to scout it in ourselves and others, and never show it tolerance. (Nelson Willie)
The world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be super added. (Nelson Willie)
If you optimize everything, you will always be unhappy. (Nelson Willie)
All of our unhappiness comes from our inability to be alone. (Nelson Willie)
It takes patience to appreciate domestic bliss; volatile spirits prefer unhappiness. (Nelson Willie)
The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation. (Nelson Willie)
Those who are unhappy have no need for anything in this world but people capable of giving them their attention. (Nelson Willie)
You start out happy that you have no hips or boobs. All of a sudden you get them, and it feels sloppy. Then just when you start liking them, they start drooping. (Nelson Willie)
I have been very happy, very rich, very beautiful much adulated, very famous and very unhappy. (Nelson Willie)
“We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it.” (Nelson Willie)
