Лев Толстой утверждал когда-то, что все несчастливые семьи несчастны по-разному, а все счастливые – счастливы одинаково. Эту мысль можно распространить и в целом на людей и даже на общество, а примеры счастливых людей дают надежду, что счастье вполне достижимо при выполнении ряда условий. Бертран Рассел взял на себя смелость разобрать абстрактное понятие счастья на составляющие и доказать, что в первую очередь счастье зависит от личных усилий человека и лишь потом – от внешних обстоятельств. ...
