I’ll ask for a brain instead of a heart," said the Scarecrow. "A fool wouldn't know what to do with a heart, even if he had one." "I’ll take the heart," replied the Tin Man. "Because intelligence doesn’t bring happiness, and happiness is the most beautiful thing in the world.

I'd lost sight of the most basic things in life and now they fill me with joy. It's like the feeling when you've been ill and then you recover and promise you'll never take your health for granted again. I will never take my happiness for granted.

It's not anyone's job to make another person happy, but the truth is, people can either be very happy or very unhappy together. Happiness or unhappiness isn't a measure of their love. You can have an intense connection to someone without being a good lifelong mate for him. Love is complicated and difficult that way.

So that I could be happy right where I am, I decided to do things 'in moderation.' So that I can look after myself and those I care about, I work at a moderately busy workplace, earn a moderate wage, have fun in moderation. . . . People look at me and say I lack ambition. But isn't 'moderation' the greatest ambition we can have? I'm being really ambitious in trying to stay happy and within the lines of moderation.

è uno spreco di energia se questa fame di felicità non la usi per rassicurare quelli che la provano senza neanche saperlo

Cultivating deep-seated joy to carry us through the painful times of life is absolutely a praiseworthy pursuit, but in no way does it mean that God is uninterested in our day-to-day happiness. When we measure our spiritual success in terms of how much we have suffered for the sake of the gospel, how unpleasant our daily battle battle against sin is, or how exhaustive our devotion, we stripping ourselves of the sacred gift of delight.

We can live by the things that just happen each day,
Or dream up a vision to show us the way.
For the greatest power, the biggest of all,
Is the spark of a thought that can rise and stand tall.
So let’s start to dream, let’s start to create,
A world full of hope, not sorrow or hate.
The power’s in us, let’s all join the fun,
And build the bright future for everyone!
A place full of wonder, full of what we hold dear,
Where what we believe in is what will appear

The choice is ours, it’s plain to see,
We’ll shape the world that’s meant to be!

There was a time when all she could do was love
Love herself
Love those around her
Love everything about life
But life taught her it's not always about happiness and love
Things get tough
Things get complicated
And when things get so ugly so fast
It's a struggle to see change easily
But it is possible
Just have some faith
Try to reach your goal
And learn to love again
Because life isn't worth living if you cannot love

I’m convinced that the best things in life are:

Red wine, honey, Croatian olive oil, being self-employed, love, old books, the Bialetti Moka pot, sunsets, and living in a neighborhood that wasn’t planned by modernist architects.

Anything else is strictly unnecessary.

I don't agree with the theory that adversity and sorrow and disappointment develop moral strength. The happy people are the ones who are bubbling over with kindliness.

We are not meant to be happy all the time, at least in terms of constant bliss. Our brains cannot always be high on dopamine. If they were meant to be then narcotic drugs wouldn’t be so harmful.

A better and more realistic aspiration than constant happiness, is “reasonable peace

I have learned,
we are not our happiest when we get what we want--
then we are prone to pick--
aware of all the flaws and tradeoffs
in our realized-but-imperfect fantasy.

We are our happiest
when we have hope.
