J. S. Mill said:
It is better to be a human being unhappy than a pig happy; better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a fool satisfied. And if the fool, or the pig, are a different opinion, it is because they only know their own side of the question. The other party to the comparison knows both sides.
I think the real fool here is Mill. If you're happy, it doesn't matter iif you're Sokrates, Bush or a pig!
