We are never so happy nor so unhappy as we imagine.

Summary

This quote suggests that our perception of happiness and unhappiness is often exaggerated. It implies that our imagination can distort reality, leading us to believe that we are either extremely happy or incredibly unhappy. In reality, life's joys and sorrows may be more moderate than what we imagine. Therefore, it reminds us to be mindful of our emotions and recognize that they may not always accurately reflect the reality of our situation.
