...pleasure of course is proverb

  Emily Bronte

But from everything we've learned about life, the pursuit of hedonism and pleasure for pleasure's sake won't make us happy.

 For one of the pleasures of having a rout, / Is the pleasure of having it over.
  Thomas Hood

 There are no pleasures in a fight but some of my fights have been a pleasure to win.
  Muhammad Ali

 Business is always interfering with pleasure - but it makes other pleasures possible
