Quote by Julian Casablancas

Desire is individual. Happiness is common.

Desire is individual. Happiness is common.

Summary

This quote suggests that desire is something personal to each individual, as it stems from their own preferences, wants, and ambitions. On the other hand, happiness is something that can be shared and experienced by many people collectively. While desires may vary from person to person, there are common elements and experiences that can bring happiness to people as a whole. It implies that individual desires may lead to personal satisfaction, but shared happiness is found in collective experiences and connections with others.

We know we are beautiful. And ugly too. The tom-tom cries and the tom-tom laughs. If colored people are pleased, we are glad. If they are not, it doesn't matter either. We build our temples for tomorrow, strong as we know how, and we stand on top of the mountain, free within ourselves.
