All who joy would win
Must share it,—Happiness was born a twin.
===
There are strings," said Mr Tappertit, "in the human heart that had better not be vibrated."
===
If all the earth were paper white
And all the sea were ink
'Twere not enough for me to write
As my poor heart doth think
===
In a full heart there is room for everything, and in an empty heart there is room for nothing.
===
Follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow.
===
Unhappiness is best defined as the difference between our talents and our expectations.
===
You're the Nile,
You're the Tower of Pisa,
You're the smile
On the Mona Lisa...
But if, Baby, I'm the bottom you're the top!
===
Work and love—these are the basics. Without them there is neurosis.
===
The most wonderful thing in life is to be delirious and the most wonderful kind of delirium is being in love.
===
A man had given all other bliss,
And all his worldly worth for this,
To waste his whole heart in one kiss
Upon her perfect lips

[Borna66]

Don't think you can frighten me by telling me I am alone. France is alone; and God is alone; and what is my loneliness before the loneliness of my country and my God.
***
Here among flowers one glass of wine,
with no close friends, I pour it alone.
I lift cup to bright moon, beg its company,
then facing my shadow, we become three.
***
I remember my grandfather telling me how each of us must live with a full measure of loneliness that is inescapable, and we must not destroy ourselves with our passion to escape this aloneness.
***
Happiness is a mystery like religion, and should never be rationalized.
***
Happiness: a good bank account, a good cook, a good digestion.
***
Mankind are always happy for having been happy, so that if you make them happy now, you make them happy twenty years hence by the memory of it.
***
After all, tomorrow is another day.
***
Always give the patient hope, even when death seems at hand.
***
Hope is necessary in every condition. The miseries of poverty, sickness, of captivity, would, without this comfort, be insupportable.
***
You don't seem to realize that a poor person who is unhappy is in a better position than a rich person who is unhappy. Because the poor person has hope. He thinks money would help.
***
Man's love is of man's life a thing apart,
'Tis woman's whole existence.
***
My delight and thy delight
Walking, like two angels white,
In the gardens of the night.

We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better
than today. I don't think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before
, admitting today was great. If you're hung up on nostalgia
pretend today is yesterday and just go out
and have one hell of a time
