George Burns on happiness

I would rather be a failure doing something I love than be a sucess doing something I hate.

Sex at age ninety is like trying to shoot pool with a rope.

Too bad that all the people who know how to run the country are busy driving taxicabs and cutting hair.

Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.

Dr. Seuss1904–1991

It was when I was happiest that I longed most…The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing…to find the place where all the beauty came from.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold (1956), Pt. 1, VII (Psyche)
