Denmark, the Happiest Country in the World
|
|
“Perhaps Danish happiness is not really happiness at all, but something much more valuable and durable: contentedness, being satisfied with your lot, low-level needs being met, higher expectations being kept in check.”
― The Almost Nearly Perfect People: Behind the Myth of the Scandinavian Utopia
― The Almost Nearly Perfect People: Behind the Myth of the Scandinavian Utopia
“To achieve authentic, sustained happiness, above all else you need to be in charge of your life, to be in control of who you want to be, and be able to make the appropriate changes if you are not.”

“Inequality breeds depression, addiction, resignation, and physical symptoms including premature aging, that affect the entire population. In other words, the well-being of individuals, rich or poor, is mutually dependent.”
