“Happy are those who own nothing.”
“The happiness of those who want to be popular depends on others; the happiness of those who seek pleasure fluctuates with moods outside their control; but the happiness of the wise grows out of their own free acts.”
“Those who know nothing of foreign languages know nothing of their own.”
“Those only are happy .... who have their minds fixed on some object other than their own happiness, "a crisis in my mental history”
“Throughout centuries, there are those who have risked new roads led by nothing except their own vision”
“Those might not be the very best judges of the relation of religion to happiness who, by their own account, had neither one nor the other.”
