"I believe I may assert that they were really in possession of deep and growing happiness. It ended. Well, we must be for ourselves in the long run; the mild and generous are only more justly selfish than the domineering- and it ended when circumstances caused each to feel that the one's interest was not in the chief consideration in the other's thoughts."

"Build your home in small moments of joy, and you will always feel at home."
"A happy person is not without sorrow or grief. Happiness is the acceptance of pain, not the lack of it."
"Learn to be happy with yourself first, then happiness will follow you everywhere."

"Happiness and goodness, according to canting moralists, stand in the relation of effect and cause. There was never anything less proved or less probable: our happiness is never in our own hands; we inherit our constitution; we stand buffet among friends and enemies; we may be so built as to feel a sneer or an aspersion with unusual keenness and so circumstanced as to be unusually exposed to them; we may have nerves very sensitive to pain, and be afflicted with a disease very painful. Virtue will not help us, and it is not meant to help us."
"Happiness is a collection of joyful experiences shared with soul friends. Get together and have some fun!"

"Then dawns the Invisible; the Unseen its truth reveals;My outward sense is gone, my inward essence feels:Its wings are almost free - its home, its harbour found,Measuring the gulph, it stoops and dares the final bound,'Oh I dreadful is the check - intense the agony - When the ear begins to hear, and the eye begins to see;When the pulse begins to throb, the brain to think again;The soul to feel the flesh, and the flesh to feel the chain."
