I actually think the same things do make most people happy. the differences are extremely small, and around the margins. you like peach ice cream; i like strawberry ice cream. both of us like ice cream much better than a smack on the head with two-by-four.

Real Ice Cream Pie
I may never be happy, but tonight i am content. nothing more than an empty house, the warm hazy weariness from a day spent setting strawberry runners in the sun, a glass of cool sweet milk, and a shallow dish of blueberries bathed in cream. when one is so tired at the end of a day one must sleep, and at the next dawn there are more strawberry runners to set, and so one goes on living, near the earth. at times like this i'd call myself a fool to ask for more.

Wall Distance Fighting
