Envy, envy eats them alive. if you had money, they’d envy you that. but since you don’t, they envy you for having such a good, bright, loving daughter. they envy you for just being a happy man. they envy you for not envying them. one of the greatest sorrows of human existence is that some people aren’t happy merely to be alive but find their happiness only in the misery of others.

More From Dean Koontz

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
One of the greatest sorrows of human existence is that some people aren't happy merely to be alive but find their happiness only in the misery of others.
People Sorrow Alive
So often, we blame other people when, really, the problem is right down in here. i'm not happy. i don't know what's wrong. if i just had another job, i could be happy. if i just get married, i would be happy. well if i just wasn't married, i would be happy. well, if i just had some kids, i'll be happy. i'll be happy when these kids finally grow up and get out of here. if i had a bigger house, i would be happy. well, i got a big house. now if i just had a maid to clean, i'd be happy. well, now if i just had a maid i could get along with better, i'd be happy.
Happiness Jobs Growing Up
Happiness is normally the prime search of every rational human being. one way to derive increasing happiness during the year we have just entered is to strive diligently to promote the happiness of others, to think of them first, yourself second. happiness is the greatest tonic, the greatest elixir, of all. worry is among the worst poisons. one sensible new year resolution: i will do my utmost to have consideration for others, to exercise usefulness, to radiate happiness, to conquer worrying over things i cannot possibly remedy.
Happiness New Year Exercise
Love rejoices in good wherever it finds it; envy is pained by good, and the sight of the happiness of others hurts the eyes and the heart of the envious man. love wishes to give; envy would rather receive. love creates; envy destroys. love builds up; envy pulls down. love helps those in need, comforts the afflicted, and strives to turn all that is evil into good; envy would turn the little happiness to be found in this world into evil, sorrow, and pain.
Love Hurt Pain
Oh god, are there so many of them in our land! students who can’t be happy until they’ve graduated, servicemen who can’t be happy until they are discharged, single folks who can’t be happy until they’ve found a mate, workers who can’t be happy until they’ve retired, adolescents who aren’t happy until they’re grown, ill people who aren’t happy until they’re well, failures who aren’t happy until they succeed, restless who can’t wait until they get out of town, and in most cases, vice versa, people waiting, waiting for the world to begin.

Every region should retain representative samples of its original or wilderness condition, to serve science as a sample of normality. just as doctors must study healthy people to understand disease, so must the land sciences study the wilderness to understand disorders of the land-mechanism.
