Vertigo

“Anyone whose goal is ‘something higher‘  must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves“. Milan Kundera

The Pursuit of Happiness


“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness“. Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence. 

“It was right then that I started thinking about Thomas Jefferson, the Declaration of Independence and the part about our right to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And I remember thinking: How did he know to put the pursuit part in there? That maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue. And maybe we can actually never have it, no matter what. How did he know that?“ The Pursuit of Happiness
