Il faudrait enseigner l'art d'être heureux, explique Alain. Non pas l'art d'être heureux quand le malheur vous tombe sur la tête; je laisse cela aux stoïciens; mais l'art d'être heureux quand les circonstances sont passables et que toute l'amertume de la vie se réduit à de petits ennuis et à de petits malaises. Un incontournable classique de la philosophie du XXe siècle. Voici le jardin du philosophe. On y cueillera des fruits mûris sur le tronc de la sagesse commune et dorés à cette autre lumière des idées. Ils en reprennent leur saveur d'origine, qui est le goût de l'existence. Saveur oubliée en nos pensées; car on voudrait s'assurer que l'existence est bonne et on ne le peut; on en déçoit donc l'espérance par précaution, prononçant qu'elle est mauvaise. De là s'étend l'empire de l'imagination déréglée, en quoi Alain, se confiant à la sagesse du corps, restaure la souveraineté claire de l'homme heureux et qui n'attend pas pour l'être, ici et non ailleurs, que l'événement lui donne raison, acteur enfin et non spectateur de soi-même.
