One of my favorite quotes:

"There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved."

Happiness is dependent on other people holding up their side of the bargain? You have to have luck as well as effort, in order to be happy?

A grim thought.

This quote does not actually imply the same person(s) in both clauses.

It certainly does when it's posted in the context of a romantic relationship!
