Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady
purpose — a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye.
~Mary Shelley
I don't know Who — or what — put the question, I
don't know when it was put. I don't even remember answering. But at some
moment I did answer Yes to Someone — or Something — and from that hour I
was certain that existence is meaningful and that, therefore, my life,
in self-surrender, had a goal. ~Dag Hammarskjöld
The grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for. ~Allan K. Chalmers
We tend to forget that happiness doesn’t come as a result of getting
something we don’t have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what
we do have. ~Fredrick Koeing
