“Simply to have all the necessities of life and three meals a day will not bring happiness. Happiness is hidden in the unnecessary and in those impractical things that bring delight to the inner person. . . .

Not on bread alone do we live but on all these human and heart-hungry luxuries.” HumansHeartChildrenPersonsPlayHappinessPurposeThreeSimplePleasureEatingCreatingDrinkingDelightHungryBreadLuxuryMealsEnjoymentPurpose Of LifeUnnecessaryVisitingPleasures Of LifeSimple PleasuresProper Time Author:Edward M Hays

“As readers, we are seldom interested in the fine sentiments of a lesson learnt; we seldom care about the good manners of morals. Repentance puts an end to conversation; forgiveness becomes the stuff of moralistic tracts. Revenge - bloodthirsty, justice-hungry revenge - is the very essence of romance, lying at the heart of much of the best fiction.” HeartEndsCareRomanceLyingStuffJusticeFictionMoralFineReaderLessonsConversationEssenceRevengeHungryMannersGood ManRepentanceSentimentsGood Manners Author:Alberto Manguel
