Quote by -Lyndon B. Johnson
Only two things are necessary to keep one's wife happy. One is to let her think she is having her own way, and the other is to let her have it.
Quote by -Lyndon B. Johnson
"He that travels in theory has no inconveniences; he has shade and sunshine at his disposal, and wherever he alights finds tables of plenty and looks of gaiety. These ideas are indulged till the day of departure arrives, the chaise is called, and the progress of happiness begins. A few miles teach him the fallacies of imagination. The road is dusty, the air is sultry, the horses are sluggish. He longs for the time of dinner that he may eat and rest. The inn is crowded, his orders are neglected, and nothing remains but that he devour in haste what the cook has spoiled, and drive on in quest of better entertainment. He finds at night a more commodious house, but the best is always worse than he expected."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"Clap an extinguisher upon your irony if you are unhappily blessed with a vein of it."

"It is the great privilege of poverty to be happy and yet unenvied, to be healthy with physic, secure without a guard, and to obtain from the bounty of nature what the great and wealthy are compelled to procure by the help of art."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"That kind of life is most happy which affords us most opportunities of gaining our own esteem."

I'm happy that I have brought laughter because I have been shown by many the value of it in so many lives, in so many ways.
Quote by -Lucille Ball
"It is better to suffer wrong than to do it, and happier to be sometimes cheated than not to trust."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"Let him who desires to see others happy, make haste to give while his gift can be enjoyed, and remember that every moment of delay takes away something from the value of his benefaction"
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"By taking a second wife he pays the highest compliment to the first, by showing that she made him so happy as a married man, that he wishes to be so a second time."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"Anything is a waste of time unless you are fucking well or creating well or getting well or looming toward a kind of phantom-love-happiness."
Quote by -Charles Bukowski
"In 1968, I became a vegetarian after realizing that animals feel afraid, cold, hungry, and unhappy like we do.."
Quote by -Cesar Chavez

Quote by -Oliver Goldsmith
