Thought for the day, Monday 13th March

“To me there is in happiness an element of self-forgetfulness. You lose yourself in something outside yourself when you are happy; just as when you are desperately miserable you are intensely conscious of yourself, are a solid little lump of ego weighing a ton.”

Joseph Priestley, scientist, liberal political theorist, and Unitarian minister, born on this day in 1733
