Anne McCaffrey: "A good song is a song that the singer wants to keep singing."

Make your anger so expensive that no one can afford it, and make your happiness so cheap, everyone can get it for free.

This is your life. You are responsible for it. You will not live forever. Don't waste it.

Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course! Each of us has such a bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no going back.

The secret of being happy is accepting where you are in life and making the most out of every day.

Forgiving doesn't imply that what someone did to you is okay, it simply means that you're not going to let what they did ruin your happiness.

Be happy for no reason, like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you’re in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you.
