The Only Really Happy Folks
“The only really happy folk are married women and single men.” ~ H. L. Mencken
To Be Happy
“And if we continue asking why, like the child we once were, trying to excavate down to our most rudimentary ambition—a time-worn exercise—we’ll eventually find all reasons lead to the same place, to the one core reason for living we’d sought all along, the core reason against which we measure the value of everything we do: to be happy.” ~ Dr. Alex Lickerman
Prisoners of Fate
“Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.” ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
