“After all the highways, and the trains, and the appointments, and the years, you end up worth more dead than alive.”
― Arthur Miller, Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman

“Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed, is a most undesirable sentiment. If you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time. On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.”
― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

“We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

“Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”
― Abraham Lincoln
