Few men have the natural strength to honor a friend's success without envy. We so skillfully hide our pain that many people are jealous of our happiness. The worst part of success is trying to find someone who is happy for you. Man never thinks himself happy, but when he enjoys those things which others want or desire. Envying another man's happiness is madness; you wouldn't know what to do with it if you had it.
