We live a routine that can't produce a different result. If we're not happy today, we won't be so tomorrow. I have the feeling of consuming my life waiting for something that'll never happen.
Happiness, sudden vertigo, optical illusion, chance to take, park it without emergency lights or triangle, all sleep already and the traffic light has gone off. Yesterday it was you, today I'm the next, how long will it last, I ask others but I think some invisible thread has gone, not but the scenery remains.
History is not terrain for happiness. The moments of happiness in it are blank pages.
Happiness is maybe another thing, but what it's passed me right there under my eyes, these years, I would never change with anything.
There is one inborn mistake, and it is believing that we exist to be happy.
Until the day when God shall deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is summed up in these two words, "Wait and hope".
There are some days when I think I'm going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.
Nobody can make you unhappy, no situation can make you sad or miserable unless you allow it to.
The faculty of imagination ... is the main source of human happiness.
Rob the average man of his life-illusion, and you rob him of his happiness at the same stroke.
