"Nuestra capacidad de extraer felicidad de objetos estéticos o bienes materiales en realidad parece depender críticamente de satisfacer primero una gama más importante de necesidades emocionales o psicológicas, entre ellas la necesidad de comprensión, amor,"
— Alain de Botton
Simplified Meaning:
We can only truly enjoy things like beautiful art or material items if our basic emotional and psychological needs, such as feeling understood, loved, able to express ourselves, and respected, are already met.
