“Who is the happiest of men? He who values the merits of others, and in their pleasure takes joy, even as though t'were his own.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“I dont know who it is to blame. Men for treating women like nothing till they were the most revealing clothing ever to get noticed by them. Or women for caving in to the unrealistic opinion of a women in a mans mind.”
“The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding.”
Leonardo da Vinci
“One of life's most over-valued pleasures is sexual intercourse; of one of life's least appreciated pleasures in defecation.”
Mark Twain
“A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure, a messenger of peace and love, a resting place for innocence on earth, a link between angels and men”
Martin Fraquhar Tupper
“Pleasure for one hour, a bottle of wine. Pleasure for one year a marriage; but pleasure for a lifetime, a garden.”
Chinese Proverbs
“LIFE is a mosaic of pleasure and pain - grief is an interval between two moments of joy. Peace is the interlude between two wars. You have no rose without a thorn; the diligent picker will avoid the pricks and gather the flower. There is no bee without the sting; cleverness consists in gathering the honey nevertheless.”
Sri Sathya Sai Baba
