“It is right it should be so;
Man was made for joy and woe;
And when this we rightly know,
Thro' the world we safely go.

Joy and woe are woven fine,
A clothing for the soul divine.
Under every grief and pine
Runs a joy with silken twine.”
― William Blake, The Complete Poems

“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power or our will. ”
― Epictetus

“The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.”
― Lao Tzu, Te-Tao Ching

“When people see some things as beautiful,
other things become ugly.
When people see some things as good,
other things become bad.”
― Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching
