The last thing I want to talk about, apropos of the issue of the pursuit of happiness, is that study after study has shown that people who are lonely and depressed, and depression is the other real epidemic in our culture, are many times more likely to get sick and die prematurely, in part because, as we talked about, they're more likely to smoke, overeat, drink too much, work too hard, and so on.
Por último, a propósito del asunto de la búsqueda de la felicidad, es que estudio tras estudio han mostrado que la gente solitaria y deprimida, y la depresión es otra epidemia en nuestra cultura, son mucho más susceptibles a enfermarse o morir prematuramente, en parte porque como comenté, tienden a fumar comer, beber de más o trabajar demasiado.
