Happiness and Joy

Grow old along with me!

The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That's the deal.

To joyously savor one single instant of initial life I seek an innocent country 1

Love lights more fires than hate extinguishes.

I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming. . . . This all sounds very strenuous and serious. But now that I have wrestled with it, it’s no longer so. I feel happy—deep down.

Is come, my love is come to me.

oh god it’s wonderful to get out of bed and drink too much coffee and smoke too many cigarettes and love you so much

All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

Sleep not, dream not; this bright day Will not, cannot last for aye; Bliss like thine is bought by years Dark with torment and with tears.

 

’Tis sweet to hear the watchdog’s honest bark Bay deep-mouth’d welcome as we draw near home; ’Tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark Our coming, and look brighter when we come.

Until everything was rainbow, rainbow, rainbow! And I let the fish go.

A kiss makes the heart young again and wipes out the years.

Happiness is seeing the muscular lifeguard all the girls were admiring leave the beach hand in hand with another muscular lifeguard.

Drink and dance and laugh and lie,

Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others, cannot keep it from themselves.

When men drink, then they are rich and successful and win lawsuits and are happy and help their friends. Quickly, bring me a beaker of wine, so that I may wet my mind and say something clever.

There, there is nothing else but grace and measure, Richness, quietness and pleasure. 4

Smiles, tears, of all my life!—and if God choose,

Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars.

JUST LIVING IS NOT ENOUGH… ONE MUST HAVE SUNSHINE, FREEDOM, AND A LITTLE FLOWER.

You can't deny laughter when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants.

Happiness does not lie in happiness, but in the achievement of it.

The most wasted day of all is that in which we have not laughed.

Breathless, we flung us on the windy hill, Laughed in the sun, and kissed the lovely grass.
