Description:Excerpt from The Science of Happiness I say? Nay, I understate the case' the only problem is the problem of happiness. For savage and for civilised man alike; for hod-carrier and for psychologist; for the little child prattling at its mother's knee and for the Old man tottering to the grave; for blooming maiden and for ancient beldame; for beast and bird and reptile even; for each and every living thing in all the broad expanse of land and sea and sky, - the ever present, ever insistent, inexorable problem of happiness is the dominant motive of every act. Back of every conscious movement lies the load stone of a desire. Back of every instinctive motion of the lowliest organism, every re ex twitch of a muscle of beast or of man, is a chain of organic impulses lead ing no less surely, though it be by the tortuous route of heredity, to a primeval desire. And in the last analysis all desires, whatever their seeming diversity of character, may be reduced to one: Stated broadly, there is no desire but the desire for happiness.
