Happiness and Misery
Joy is not in things, it is in us. [Select] Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember. [Select] A home is not a mere transient shelter: its essence lies in the personalities of the people who live in it. [Select] Ask yourself whether you are happy, and you will cease to be so. [Select] If what Proust says is true, that happiness is the absence of fever, then I will never know happiness. For I am possessed by a fever for knowledge, experience, and creation. [Select] Anaïs Nin {Also in: Wisdom and Ignorance} The heart has its reasons that reason knows nothing of. [Select] Blaise Pascal {Also in: Love and Hate} No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. [Select] Man is only happy as he finds a work worth doing, and does it well. [Select] E. Merrill Root {Also in: Work and Recreation} I'm an idealist. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way. [Select] A man can do what he wants, but not want what he wants. [Select] A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth. [Select] Poverty doesn't bring unhappiness; it brings degradation. [Select] George Bernard Shaw {Also in: Wealth and Poverty} Trouble is part of your life -- if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough. [Select] He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much. [Select] Bessie Stanley {Also in: Success and Failure} Every heart that has beat strong and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind. [Select] Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads. [Select] A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval. [Select] Everything human is pathetic. The secret source of humor itself is not joy but sorrow. [Select] The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter. [Select] Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.
