Utter happiness is a ordsprog

en Utter happiness is a fallacy. The best most of us can hope for is that occasional span of time which occurs at irregular lengths and intervals throughout our lives wherein for an all too ephemeral period, nothing in particular sucks about living.

en "I'll be happy when...." is the way many people think they are living their lives. Yet, happiness is not something that happens to you. Happiness is inside you now. You are motivated from within. You only have to allow happiness to surface.

en OCCASIONAL, adj. Afflicting us with greater or less frequency. That, however, is not the sense in which the word is used in the phrase
"occasional verses," which are verses written for an "occasion," such as an anniversary, a celebration or other event. True, they afflict us a little worse than other sorts of verse, but their name has no reference to irregular recurrence.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Capital is dead labor, which, vampire-like, lives only by sucking living labor, and lives the more, the more labor it sucks.

en Intellectually, we know for certain that we are on this planet for a very brief period, yet we tend to live as if we were going to live forever, as if there were no end to our life or to the lives of our friends and family. This not-so-subtle denial of death persists throughout our lives, unless we are lucky enough to get a dramatic, usually painful and invariably life-changing wake-up call. The moments of our lives are ephemeral gifts, and we can not afford to miss even one of them. Happily, you don't have to wait for a painful wake-up call. You can notice the miracle of your life right now. Awareness is a choice.

en There is no permanent place in [this universe] for evil... Evil may hide behind this fallacy and that, but it will be hunted from fallacy to fallacy until there is no more fallacy for it to hide behind.
  Thomas Carlyle

en Be mindful of every little pleasure in life,
By living everyday like it’s your last day.

en I am because someone dreams me; a man who sleeps and dreams and sees me acting, living and moving – and who is dreaming at this moment as I am speaking to you. A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. When he dreams, I awake to life; when he awakes, my existence vanishes. I am a whim of his inspiration, a creation of his mind, a visitor in his nightly fantasies.

  Giovanni Papini

en It was a dark and stormy night and the rain fell in torrents except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fierce
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

en (The sequel) would span its own time period. You wouldn't have to see the first one to get it.

en Things to remember:
1) The worth of character;
2) The improvement of talent;
3) The influence of example;
4) The joy of origination;
5) The dignity of simplicity;
6) The success of perseverance.
  Marshall Field

en We typically observe steady trends in the data and do not see such widespread change across related survey items unless a major event occurs. This survey is evidence that last year's natural disasters impacted these freshmen in a significant way that we can continue to monitor. These are known as period effects, societal or world events that impact students during an impressionable time of their lives.

en By the time they were juniors and seniors, they knew exactly what they were going to do before they did it. And that helps. You need to have kids that know each other and that do an occasional back-door [cut] on their own, do an occasional pick out of the offense on their own.

en For me, the most memorable adventures are still the perils that we face daily in life and love, from the mundane to the meaningful. Where the comedy is often at our own expense, but where the drama, even if painful, reminds us that we are living and feeling here in the real time, with the ever-recurring possibility that this latest chapter will end with new understanding, hope and perhaps even happiness.

en THE span of life allotted to man is very short; the World in which he lives is very wide; time extends far behind and far beyond.
