09:30 pm - The bird of paradise alights only upon the hand that does not grasp.
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us least live so as to deserve it.
The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet.
I am a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy. (Aw, isn't that cute.)
True happiness is of a retired nature, and an enemy to pomp and noise; it arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of one's self, and in the next from the friendship and conversation of a few select companions.
Nobody sees a flower - really - it is so small it takes time - we haven't time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.
I like that kind of writing, so true you know no thought was put into it.
