Famous quote by Stephen Fry

"You can't reason yourself back into cheerfulness any more than you can reason yourself into an extra six inches in height"

About this Quote

This quote by Stephen Fry is a tip that we can not use reasoning or thinking to change specific aspects of our lives. We can not utilize our minds to make ourselves taller, or to make ourselves feel happier. We can not utilize our thoughts to alter our physical attributes or our emotions. Rather, we should accept our physical and psychological constraints and discover other ways to bring happiness into our lives. We can do this by participating in activities that bring us happiness, such as spending quality time with family and friends, taking part in hobbies, or taking some time for self-care. We can also try to find the good in our lives and focus on the favorable aspects of our lives. By doing this, we can find delight and happiness even when we can not utilize our minds to change our circumstances.
