“It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.”

“Isn’t that why you have that gun mounted on the front? Or is it for other reasons, because I would’ve thought that a man with your powers would be past the urge to compensate.” Barabas grinned. “I had forgotten that talking to you is like trying to pet a cactus,” Saiman said dryly. “Thank you for reminding me.” “Always happy to oblige.”

“The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet.”

“The present time has one advantage over every other -- it is our own.”

The wiser course is to think of others when pursuing our own happiness.”
