I wish to cry. Yet, I laugh
Melancholy is the happiness of being sad (
Melancholy is sadness that has taken on lightness
Depression is melancholy minus its charms
It’s how I fill the time when nothing’s happening. Thinking too much, flirting with melancholy
I don’t know what’s worse: to not know what you are and be happy, or to become what you’ve always wanted to be, and feel alone
What if everything in the world were a misunderstanding, what if laughter were really tears?
Get rid of melancholy by watching:
The moment you stop chasing happiness, you become happy
Paradox is the pathos or the passion of philosophy
Humor is consistent with pathos, whilst wit is not
