I agree with you: Who has never tasted bitter, knows not what is sweet.

for Stig
On the other side, if one is unaware of happiness, one takes the misery for granted; one knows that this is all that there is in life. If you have only tasted the bitterness of it and never the sweetness of joy, you. become accustomed to the bitterness. You know this is all, this is the only taste there is. But when you have tasted the sweet and then you taste bitterness again, it looks even more bitter than ever. So falling from happiness back into an old pattern creates misery in a more intensified, multiplied way. So beware!
