“He is happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.”
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Simplified Meaning:
Feeling truly content comes from having a calm and happy home, no matter who you are or what your status is. Imagine a king with a big castle and lots of power but who is unhappy because his home is full of arguments and stress. Now, picture a farmer with a simple house who enjoys coming home because it is filled with love and peace. The farmer, despite having less, feels more joy because his home is a place where he can relax and feel safe. This shows that real happiness doesn’t come from wealth or titles but from having a serene and loving home environment. To apply this to your own life, focus on making your home a place where you feel at ease and surrounded by positive relationships.
