“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

Beauty is no more than the promise of happiness.

Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

To learn and at due times to repeat what one has learnt, is that not after all a pleasure?

Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.
