"Most folks set their sights too high. They demand too much of life. How many meals can you eat? How many horses can you ride? How many roofs do you have to sleep under? Let me tell you, the happy man is the man who is content with just what he needs . . . just so he has it regular." (from Where the Long Grass Blows, by Louis L'Amour.
I don't know if that is where Louis got it, but there is a principle in the Bible that says much the same thing: "Let your conversation be without covetousness, and be content with such things as you have."
