Only when the happiness is past and we look back on it we do suddenly realize — sometimes with astonishment — how happy we had been.“ — Nikos Kazantzakis „And as, in ethics, Evil is a consequence of Good, so, in fact, out of Joy is sorrow born. Either the memory of past bliss is the anguish of to-day, or the agonies which are, have their origin in the ecstasies which might have been.“ — Edgar Allan Poe
