“..that sanguine expectation of happiness which is happiness itself”
“Hope is itself a species of happiness, and perhaps, the chief happiness which this world affords.”
“If the entire world sought to make itself worthy of happiness rather than make itself happy, then the entire world would be happy.”
“A happy memory is perhaps on this earth truer than happiness itself.”
“You see, nothing matters except pleasure - which is the opposite of happiness, its tragic part, I expect.”
“The secret to happiness is low expectations.”
