“(...)happiness is like those stars. They don't cover all the darkness; there are gaps between. We make mistakes in life and we misunderstand, and yet there remain gaps through which truth shines.”
― Rabindranath Tagore, Mashi

“Day after day I postponed living in you, but I never put off the death which I died each day in myself. I longed for a life of happiness but I was frightened to approach it in its own domain; and yet, while I fled from it, I still searched for it.”
― Augustine of Hippo, Confessions

“.. and that happiness could be found in a grain of sand from the desert, as the alchemist had said. Because a grain of sand is a moment of creation, and the universe has taken millions of years to create it.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

“The secret to happiness: resist nothing and allow everything.
The secret to contentment: revere everything.
The secret to enlightenment: there is no secret.”
― Maximus Freeman
