    -Helen Adams Keller

    There’s no use in doing a kindness
    If you do it a day too late."

  8. "What is the best thing for a stream? It is to keep moving. If it stops, it stagnates. So the best thing for a man is that which keeps the currents going ? the physical, the moral, and the intellectual currents. Hence the secret of happiness is ? something to do; some congenial work. Take away the occupation of all men, and what a wretched world it would be!
    Few persons realize how much of their happiness is dependent upon their work, upon the fact that they are kept busy and not left to feed upon themselves. Happiness comes most to persons who seek her least, and think least about it. It is not an object to be sought; it is a state to be induced. It must follow and not lead. It must overtake you, and not you overtake it. How important is health to happiness, yet the best promoter of health is something to do.
    Blessed is the man who has some congenial work, some occupation in which he can put his heart, and which affords a complete outlet to all the forces there are in him."
    -John Burroughs
     
  9. "What is the worth of anything,
    But for the happiness 'twill bring?"
    -Richard Owen Cambridge
     
  10. "But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads?"
    -Albert Camus
