I look at what ordinary people find happiness in, what they all make a mad dash for, racing around as though they couldn't stop-they all say they're happy with it. I'm not happy with it and I'm not unhappy with it. In the end, is there really happiness or isn't there?

Any fool can be happy. It takes a man with real heart to make beauty out of the stuff that makes us weep.

Celebrityism is the illusion that things don't happen unless famous people make them happen.

We are more interested in making others believe we are happy than in trying to be happy ourselves.

You can either hold yourself up to the unrealistic standards of others, or ignore them and concentrate on being happy with yourself as you are.     Jeph Jacques, Questionable Content webcomic, #352, 05-04-05

All happy families resemble each other; each unhappy family is un­happy in its own way.

If you want to be happy, be.
