Happiness Quotes
-
When you come upon a path
that brings benefit
and happiness to all,
follow this course
as the moon
journeys through the stars.
Gautama Buddha

Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he
That every man in arms should wish to be?
It is the generous spirit, who, when brought
Among the tasks of real life, hath wrought
Upon the plan that pleased his boyish thought:
Whose high endeavors are an inward light
That makes the path before him always bright:
Who, with a natural instinct to discern
What knowledge can perform, is diligent to learn;
And in himself posses his own desire
William Wordsworth

Without it, you are as good as dead in the battlefield.
