“Health outweighs all other blessings so much that one may really say that a healthy beggar is happier than an ailing king.

― Arthur Schopenhauer, The Wisdom of Life

“All the pride and pleasure of the world, mirrored in the dull consciousness of a fool, are poor indeed compared with the imagination of Cervantes writing his Don Quixote in a miserable prison.”
