Joy is not in things, it is in us.

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, but it empties it of its strength.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

If it is true for you, it is true for someone else, and you are no longer alone.

The universe is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

The gratification comes in the doing, not in the results.

Live for each second without hesitation.

We are all of us obliged... to nurse a few little follies in ourselves.

Endure, and keep yourselves for days of happiness.

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food!
