Never build your emotional life on the weaknesses of others.

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.

For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things. There will be sleeping enough in the grave.

It is normal to give away a little of one's life in order not to lose it all.

The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.

I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.

Faith is the first factor in a life devoted to service. Without it, nothing is possible. With it, nothing is impossible.
