Quotations
Happiness
Why should we build our happiness on the opinions of others, when we can find it in our own hearts?

Happiness is a late discovery.

-Nicholas Sparks
"Dear John"
Happy are those who mourn; God will comfort them.
-Jesus Christ

To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
-Deep Trivedi
