the desire for happiness is a proof of the ever-existing happiness of the self. otherwise, how can desire for it arise in you? if headache was natural to human beings no one would try to get rid of it. but everyone that has headache tries to get rid of it, because he has known a time when he had no headache. he desires only that which is natural to him. so too he desires happiness because it is natural to him. being natural, it is not acquired.
