Coincidence: Just now I was reading my essay for next week's Artist's Way. She says:
My grandmother knew what a painful life had taught her: success or failure, the truth of a life really has little to do with its quality. The quality of life is in proportion, always, to the capacity for delight. The capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention.
Anyway, it's not the same exactly, but it made me think of this quote you posted!
