“A happy life consists in tranquility of mind.”
“It is in your power to withdraw yourself whenever you desire. Perfect tranquility within consists in the good ordering of the mind, the realm of your own.”
“There is but one way to tranquility of mind and happiness, and that is to account no external things thine own, but to commit all to God.”
“A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.”
“The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but on the mastery of his passions.”
“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
