"The brain has evolved a truly vicious set of negative feedback mechanisms.
Their functional effect is to stop us from being truly happy for long.
Nature is cruelly parsimonious with pleasure"[www.biopsychiatry.com]

"The night all of my dreams came true, and like all happy endings, it was a tragedy of my device, for I succeeded. I had cut myself loose from Joe, from the past, from the gulf, from poverty. I had invented myself. I'd done it cruelly, but I had done it. I was free!" Finnegan 'Finn' Bell [The Great Expecations]
