醒世七篇

Happiness Is Free
The happiness of those who want to be popular depends on others; the happiness of those who seek pleasure fluctuates with moods outside their control; but the happiness of the wise grows out of their own free acts.
- Marcus Aurelius (Roman Emperor 161AD - 180AD)

Human Felicity
Human felicity is produced not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen, as by little advantages that occur everyday
- Benjamin Franklin (One of the signatories to America's Declaration of Independence)
