"Live with the objective of being happy...." - Quote by Anne Frank

“Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again.”

“The reason for my starting a diary is that I have no real friend.”

“I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.”

“The more a man possesses over and above what he uses, the more careworn he becomes.”

“Happiness that depends mainly on physical pleasure is unstable; one day it's there, the next day it may not be.”

“I've never had to work out of the arts. I've always either been a writer or an editor, or something where I've made my living from doing what I love. You can't get any better than that.”

“For many years I was a self-appointed inspector of snowstorms and rainstorms and did my duty faithfully, though I never received payment for it.”

“Let no act be done without purpose.”

“Each man must look to himself to teach him the meaning of life. It is not something discovered: it is something molded.”
