The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.

Who are the happiest people on earth? A craftsman or artist whistling over a job well done. A little child building sand castles. A mother, after a busy day, bathing her baby. A doctor who has finished a difficult and dangerous operation, and saved a human life. Happiness lies in a constructive job well done. Get your happiness out of your work or you will never know what happiness is.

Natural joy brings no headaches and no heartaches.

Life without absorbing occupation is hell; joy consists in forgetting life.
