Quote

The office of government is not to confer happiness, but to give men the opportunity to work out happiness for themselves

There is little success where there is little laughter

Happily in this community we all are bred and born to work; and this honorable mark, set on us all, should bind together the various portions of the community

There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make us rejoice

How easy to be amiable in the midst of happiness and success.

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness, and only what is useless is pleasurable
