The happiness of the bee and the dolphin is to exist. For man it is to know that and to wonder at it.

There is no happiness without knowledge. But knowledge of happiness is unhappy; for knowing ourselves happy is knowing ourselves passing through happiness, and having to, immediatly at once, leave it behind. To know is to kill, in happiness as in everything. Not to know, though, is not to exist.

 
Fernando Pessoa
 

I was thinking of people who say that happiness is impossible on earth. Look how hard they all try to find some joy in life. Look how they struggle for it. Why should any living creature exist in pain? By what conceivable right can anyone demand that a human being exist for anything but for his own joy? Every one of them wants it. Every part of him wants it. But they never find it. I wonder why.

 
Ayn Rand
 

EEK EEK EEK!! That's dolphin for 'I'm sorry.' But you already knew that.. The Midget Story.

 
Tucker Max
 

First, about the mind. You tell me there is no fighting or hatred or desire in the Town. That this is a beautiful dream, and I do want your happiness. But the absence of fighting or hatred or desire also means the opposites do not exist either. No joy, no communion, no love. Only where there is disillusionment and depression and sorrow does happiness arise; without the despair of loss, there is no hope.

 
Haruki Murakami
 

His delights
Were dolphin-like; they show'd his back above
The element they lived in.

 
Antony and Cleopatra
