Antoine de Saint-ExuperyA smile is nature's best antidote for discouragement. It brings rest to the weary, sunshine to those who are frowning, and hope to those who are hopeless and defeated. A smile is so valuable that it can't be bought, begged, borrowed, or taken away against your will. You have to be willing to give a smile away before it can do anyone else any good.

Dale CarnegieYet still, there are those special secret moments in our lives, when we smile unexpectedly-when all our forces are resolved.

Julia QuinnMr. [John] Barrymore's smile was the smile of an actor who hates actors, and who knows that he is going to kill two or three before the play is over. I am not an actor-killer, but I like my Hamlets to dislike actors, if you know what I mean, and I think you don't.
John BarrymoreItโs funnyโwhen people call you โshy,โ they usually smile. Like itโs cute, some funny little habit youโll grow out of when youโre older, like the gaps in your grin when your baby teeth fall out.
