A definition of happiness

“Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city”. (George Burns, quoted in Goodreads.com)

My comment: Witty this is, but Epicurus would have demurred. He coveted his friendships and liked nothing better than to invite friends and acquaintances round for a simple meal and an intelligent discussion (free of party politics).
