We can laugh from either joy or happiness, but we weep only from grief or joy...Without the pain of farewell, there is no joy in reunion...without the pain of captivity, we don't experience the joy of freedom.

Creativity can never be explained by appeal to reason alone. Like the birth of a child, creativity compels us not to explanation but to wonder and awe.

Whether we live to a vigorous old age lies not so much in our stars or in our genes but in ourselves.

We can laugh from either joy or happiness, but we weep only from grief or joy...Without the pain of farewell, there is no joy in reunion...without the pain of captivity, we don't experience the joy of freedom.

It's very hard, for most of us to tolerate being loved.

Happiness is only the cart; love is the horse

Joy is connection... The more areas in your life you can make connection, the better.
