Joy comes from the ability to face everyday situations with hope. For Göethe it lies in ourselves. Sometimes it involves an external component, like alcohol. Taken in different doses, alcohol causes states of euphoria or absence of anxiety (ataraxia).
A alegria provém da capacidade de olhar com esperança as situações do quotidiano. Para Göethe reside em nós próprios. Por vezes tem componente externa: o álcool. Ingerido em doses diferentes provoca estados de euforia ou de ausência de ansiedade (ataraxia).
