There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one - keep from telling their happiness to the unhappy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Even when a person has all of life's comforts - good food, good shelter, a companion - he or she can still become unhappy when encountering a tragic situation.
Heroism is accessible. Happiness is more difficult.
Until you can be happy, you can't facilitate happiness for anybody else.
No one is more miserable than the person who wills everything and can do nothing.
Happiness must be cultivated. It is like character. It is not a thing to be safely let alone for a moment, or it will run to weeds.
I have found that the only thing that does bring you happiness is doing something good for somebody who is incapable of doing it for themselves.
Happiness was not made to be boasted, but enjoyed. Therefore tho others count me miserable, I will not believe them if I know and feel myself to be happy; nor fear them.
The only happiness a brave person ever troubles themselves in asking about, is happiness enough to get their work done.
Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy.
Those who are unhappy have no need for anything in this world but people capable of giving them their attention.
