'What Is Happiness?'
On Dec 19, 1944, in the last letter he ever wrote, imprisoned in the Berlin area, Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote to his parents:
What is happiness and unhappiness? It depends so little on the circumstances; it depends really only on that which happens inside a person.
--Letters and Papers from Prison, 3d ed. (1971), p. 419
