So to me the first 3/4 was BS, but the last 1/4 was a different kind of BS. At the end his "philosophy of pessimism offers a solution" which I could agree with when turned around and mage optimistic. I agree on not getting hung up on perfection. But instead of pessimism [I don't have time to find a good way to explain it- maybe I'll edit later] if each person can find some happiness for the other when giving something up for them in a compromise, they will last longer and be happier than if they both took the pessimistic view that "the grass is brown and dead here, but I'm sure it's brown and dead everywhere else too."
