Quotations
Happiness
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.

-Marie Jeanne P. Roland
Unhappiness is bondage; therefore, happiness is freedom.
