“Friends will not only live in harmony, but in melody.”
“I am a happy camper so I guess I’m doing something right. Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.”
“I would not have any one adopt my mode of living on any account.”

“The happiest people are those who have learned to mix play with their work and to bind the two together with enthusiasm.”
“Most of my life I have done what I wanted to do. I have had fun on the job.”
“You must elect your work; you shall take what your brains can, and drop all the rest. Only so can that amount of vital force accumulate which can make the step from knowing to doing. No matter how much faculty of idle seeing a man has, the step from knowing to doing is rarely taken. It is a step out of a chalk circle of imbecility into fruitfulness.”
