Man's abiding happiness is not in getting anything but in giving himself up to what is greater than himself, to ideas which are larger than his individual life, the idea of his country, of humanity, of God.
The burden of the self is lightened with I laugh at myself.
There is no "next" after you are dead and gone from your own world.
That I exist is a perpetual surprise which is life.
The delights of sight and hearing and touch will bear thy delight.
Life's aspirations come in the guise of children.
