      The Greek philosopher Epicurus, who posited that the path to human happiness was (sustainable, appreciated) pleasure, once supposedly impressed a ruler so much that the ruler offered him vast estates, should he wish it, as a reward for his wisdom.

      Epicurus just asked for some bread and a bowl of hot cheese, so he could “feast like a king”.

      Gotta appreciate the good things in life!
