I incline more to the buddhist view:
From passion arises sorrow and from passion arises fear. If a man is free from passion, he is free from fear and sorrow.
I am not a buddhist but I find that striving for detachment gives me a more peaceful and therefore happier life.
But it may be that my views are not really so different from those of other posters, and it is all in the definition of the words.
