“And why are you so firmly, so solemnly convinced that only the normal and the positive—in short, only well-being—is to man’s advantage? After all, man may be fond not only of well-being. Perhaps he is just as fond of suffering? Perhaps suffering is just as much in his interest as well-being? And man is sometimes extremely fond of suffering, to the point of passion, in fact. And here there is no need to consult world history; ask your own self, if you’re a man and have lived at all. As for my personal opinion, it’s even somehow indecent to love only well-being.”
— “Notes from Underground” by Fyodor Dostoevsky
