“Hatred and anger are the greatest poison to the happiness of a good mind.

“Hatred and anger are the greatest poison to the happiness of a good mind.”

“No society can surely be flourishing and happy of which by far the greater part of the numbers are poor and miserable. ”

“The great source of both the misery and disorders of human life, seems to arise from over-rating the difference between one permanent situation and another. Avarice over-rates the difference between poverty and riches: ambition, that between a private and a public station: vain-glory, that between obscurity and extensive reputation. The person under the influence of any of those extravagant passions, is not only miserable in his actual situation, but is often disposed to disturb the peace of society, in order to arrive at that which he so foolishly admires. The slightest observation, however, might satisfy him, that, in all the ordinary situations of human life, a well-disposed mind may be equally calm, equally cheerful, and equally contented. Some of those situations may, no doubt, deserve to be preferred to others: but none of them can deserve to be pursued with that passionate ardour which drives us to violate the rules either of prudence or of justice; or to corrupt the future tranquillity of our minds, either by shame from the remembrance of our own folly, or by remorse from the horror of our own injustice.”

"People should pursue what they're passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything else."

"No one has arrived. Leave me there as you would leave a myth with any person who sees you until he cries and rushes into himself, afraid of happiness."

"And if happiness should surprise you again, do not mention its previous betrayal. Enter into the happiness, and burst."

"The days have taught you not to trust happiness because it hurts when it deceives."
