man’s unhappiness
sole cause, he does not know how
to stay in his room
Adapted from ‘The sole cause of man’s unhappiness is that he does not know how to stay quietly in his room’ – Pascal, Pensées, 136.
In my own little corner
In my own little chair
I can be whatever I want to be.
From the musical, Cinderella, by Oscar Hammerstein and Richard Rodgers
