“No mockery in this world ever sounds to me so hollow as that of being told to cultivate happiness. What does such advice mean? Happiness is not a potato, to be planted in mould, and tilled with manure. Happiness is a glory shining far down upon us out of Heaven.

― Charlotte Brontë, Villette

“Some people care too much. I think it's called love.”
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

“Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
