Pleasing yourself with special treats from time to time is vital to a healthy, satisfying life.... We need to surround ourselves with little rewards that mean something to us, that we can keep separate. Whether it be a sip of wine, a shopping spree, a well-deserved vacation, a vigorous laugh, or a satisfying cry -- such small indulgences can brighten and enliven our lives.

Robert Ornstein, David Sobel in Healthy Pleasures by Robert Ornstein, David Sobel
