I like variety. Quality is good, but I need to do millions of things to keep from getting bored. So, variety for me.

As I'm with my quantum of solitude, just my art work, music and cats is enough to get by on most of the time.

hmmm If not both then I think I will go for quality. Example of why. If I had fifty pair of gorgeous shoes but they were not made well so they hurt my feet everytime I walked that would not be good. But if I had one pair of shoes of good quality then I would not be hobbled by a bunch of useless junk grin Makes sense to me talk to hand Nope nope I will not explain my explanation it was quality laugh

void - containing no matter, empty -

If happiness in life was just a choice of quality or variety - how simple and happy we humans would be.....

there are more important things - duty, responsibility, loyalty, obedience to valid laws, good manners, honest work, public service, family - sometimes happiness takes a back-burner to more important things - sometimes happiness arrives when these other things are achieved.... sometimes not.... it's a crap shoot.crazy

To get your real explanation I asked ‘void’!thumbs up
I appreciate your all words but here this the single question to be asked: matter of the choice; no scope of a person’s total/partial life’s philosophy/personality test; that section is separate at CS. Isn’t it? dunno

Quality . . . and add money.
Money may not be able to buy love, but it can sure as hell make your misery more comfortable and buy a facsimile of love.

Hiya MerryW! wave

Your last paragraph is interesting in content ...
For me ...
- Duty & responsibility, when done with love = quality
If there's no love in the duty & responsibility I don't see the point in "enforcing" them as neither the giver nor the receiver would thrive on it.
- Loyalty = quality
- Obedience to valid laws = that's relative to time & place and could be = quality
- Good manners & honest work = relative to time &place, also could be = quality
- Public service = quality when done from the heart. Would lose its quality if done for the ego/"to look good".
- Family = quality when their importance comes from love. See point 1.

Happiness then is the result of how we approach the things that are important to us, instead of happiness being on the back burner till we deal with those things.
