More Quotes by Ken Keyes Jr.
Lots of people look for happiness through sensations, whether it's through sex, the taste of food, the sound of music, the sensations of movies and plays, creating a certain environment in their home, and so on.

We always have enough to be happy if we are enjoying what we do have.
Life is warning you to get rid of an addiction every time you are emotionally uncomfortable in any way.
