Earning happiness means doing good and working, not speculating and being lazy. Laziness may look inviting, but only work gives you true satisfaction.

This week I've been reading a lot and doing little work. That's the way things ought to be. That's surely the road to success.

You must work and do good, not be lazy and gamble, if you wish to earn happiness. Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.

The weak die out and the strong will survive, and will live on forever

I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.

Everyone thinks I'm showing off when I talk, ridiculous when I'm silent, insolent when I answer, cunning when I have a good idea, lazy when I'm tired, selfish when I eat one bite more than I should.

I want to write, but more than that, I want to bring out all kinds of things that lie buried deep in my heart.
