What is the purpose
  of sexuality?
“There’s a love scene on a bearskin rug;
they say it’s marvelous....The most amazing
tactual effects” (Huxley 35).
“It’s such horribly bad form to go on
and on like this with one man. At
forty, or thirty-five, it wouldn’t be so
bad. But at your age, Lenina! No, it
really won’t do” (Huxley 41).

What does it mean to
be happy?
Happiness:
              A state of well       being and contentment

    “Happiness is different from pleasure. Happiness has
 to do with struggling and enduring and accomplishing”
                                                 -George Sheehan


“I’m claiming the right to be unhappy” (240).
“It’s light, it’s childishly
                         simple” (224).




“People are happy; they get what they want,
and never want what they can’t get. They’re well
off; they’re safe” (220).
“You’d forget all about them.
   You’d be Jolly. So Jolly” (93)




“Getting rid of everything unpleasant instead
of learning to put up with it” (238).
Happiness is about
decisions
  “We   choose whether we are happy or unhappy”
                                      -zenhabits
Values                           Use Personal Strengths
                                 to Get Things Done
                                                  -MARC




  Happiness is that state of consciousness which
  proceeds from the achievement of one’s values.

  -Ayn Rand
