"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."

"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."
"I want you to be happy and for me to be part of that happiness."
