It is neither wealth nor splendor;
but tranquility and occupation which give you happiness.

The secret to a joyful life is Simplicity -
saying NO to the latest this and the most glamorous that -
saying NO to chasing an overly-demanding career -
saying NO to the stressful demands upon your time and energy.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Life is made up of small pleasures.
Happiness is made up of those tiny successes.
The big ones come too infrequently.
And if you don't collect all these tiny successes,
the big ones don't really mean anything.
- Norman Lear
Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste
that they hurry past it.
- Soren Kierkegaard
Simple living is the way to happy living.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
