Arthur Schopenhauer — "A man's delight in looking forward to and hoping for some particular satisfactio…"

A man's delight in looking forward to and hoping for some particular satisfaction is a part of the pleasure flowing out of it, enjoyed in advance. But this is afterward deducted, for the more we look forward to anything the less we enjoy it when it comes.
Arthur Schopenhauer — Arthur Schopenhauer Modern · Pessimist philosophy
