"There are no rules for felicity...." - Quote by Victor Hugo

“Genius is a promontory jutting out into the infinite.”

“When we are at the end of life, to die means to go away; when we are at the beginning, to go away means to die.”

“We are all under sentence of death, but with a sort of indefinite reprieve.”

“Man's happiness really lies in contentment.”

“Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.”

“Most people are as happy as they want to be.”

“Life belongs to the living, and he who lives must be prepared for changes.”

“Time is a kind of river, an irresistible flood sweeping up men and events and carrying them headlong, one after the other, to the great sea of being.”

“Sure, there are plenty of ways to waste this day. But you now have the chance to choose to make good and valuable use of it.Now is an opportunity to create value. And that opportunity cannot be delayed until later.Now is yours to use for whatever rich and fulfilling purpose you can imagine. Stand up, step forward, and get busy making the very best of now.”
