Quote by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Trouble is the next best thing to enjoyment. There is no fate in the world so horrible as to have no share in either its joys or sorrows.

Trouble is the next best thing to enjoyment. There is no fat

Summary

This quote suggests that experiencing trouble or adversity can be almost as satisfying as experiencing enjoyment or pleasure. It asserts that there is no fate worse than being completely devoid of both the highs and lows of life. This implies that embracing both the joys and sorrows allows for a more fulfilling existence, as it is through overcoming challenges that true growth and appreciation for life's goodness can be achieved.
