Book cover for Happiness for Beginners
The most important thing to remember is that getting what you want doesn’t make you happy.” “It doesn’t?” I asked. “Not for long. Happiness is more about appreciation than acquisition.”

“Loving a dog is proof alone that actions speak louder than words. You exist together, a back-and-forth, a give-and-take, as fluid and reliable as the lap of a wave along a shoreline. You sleep together, eat together, walk together, love together, and your commitment to each other never has to be stated. It just is. You get to know each other through living, the careful observation of two beings who want to understand.”
Isabel Klee, Dogs, Boys, and Other Things I’ve Cried About

Arthur Schopenhauer
“Compassion for animals is intimately associated with goodness of character, and it may be confidently asserted that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a good man.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Basis of Morality

“That’s the magic of dogs: The simple, unrelenting magic is that they don’t even have to try. They heal just by existing, reminding us to live every moment to the fullest. Because what is life other than taking long walks, eating good food, and spending time with the people you love most?”
Isabel Klee, Dogs, Boys, and Other Things I’ve Cried About

Sarah Damoff
“Sorrow eats time. Be patient. Time eats sorrow. Louise Erdrich, LaRose”
Sarah Damoff, The Bright Years

Arthur Schopenhauer
“The assumption that animals are without rights and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Basis of Morality
