Today's Quotation

Today's quotation comes from the eminent American (though Spanish-born) man of letters, George Santayana (1863-1952):

"A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous
pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides
in imaginative reflection and judgment, when
the picture of one's life, or of human life, as it
truly has been or is, satisfies the will,
and is gladly accepted."
