Some people have a photographic memory. I've got the film.
"When we seek to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves."
-- William Arthur Ward
"Confidence... thrives on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection and on unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live."
-- Franklin D. Roosevelt
"If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else."
-- Chinese Proverb
"Humor is by far the most significant activity of the human brain."
-- Edward De Bono
"Every storm runs out of rain."
-- Maya Angelou
"I've come to believe that seeking happiness is not a frivolous pursuit. It's honorable and necessary. And most people forget even to think about it."
-- Goldie Hawn
"[Humanity] has unquestionably one really effective weapon -- laughter. Power, money, persuasion, supplication, persecution -- these can lift at a colossal humbug -- push it a little -- weaken it a little, century by century; but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand."
-- Mark Twain
"Respect other people's feelings. It might mean nothing to you, but it could mean everything to them."
-- Roy T. Bennett
"An effort made for the happiness of others lifts us above ourselves."
-- Lydia M. Child
Be happy not because everything is good, but because you can see the good side of everything.
