Movies are different from real life.
Nothing's ever real until it's real.
To be real is to be blessed.
I'm happy to be busy. I'm happy to have a wonderful family.
The greatest happiness is to transform one's feelings into action.
The greatest happiness is to know the source of unhappiness.
I have to be creative to be happy.
It was better with the subs than it was with the gold diggers or the hookers. These were real people, with real lives, real jobs, real hearts. It meant something when they submitted to my demands. It meant trust, and trust meant love. I got that--I m...
Patience in the household is a real treasure.
Reason, Observation and Experience — the Holy Trinity of Science — have taught us that happiness is the only good; that the time to be happy is now, and the way to be happy is to make others so. This is enough for us. In this belief we are conten...
Happiness. We're tearing our hair out to try to find a definition of it, for heaven's sake. Is it joy? People will tell you that it isn't, that joy is a fleeting emotion, a moment of happiness, which is always welcome, mind you. And then what about p...
