"Life's greatest happiness is to be convinced that we are loved: loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves."
--"Les Miserables" by Victor Hugo
"Joy, in all its glory, can only be obtained through unselfishness"
--"Discovering Isaac" by Behunin
"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us." --Joseph Campbell
And I would add, "...the life that God has waiting for us."
The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches, but to reveal to him his own."
--Benjamin Disraeli
"Don't be discouraged by failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is,in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid."--John Keats
Love those books!
