Happier

Famous quotes containing the word happier:

    Only add
    Deeds to thy knowledge answerable; add faith;
    Add virtue, patience, temperance; add love,

    Of all the rest: then wilt thou not be loath
    To leave this Paradise; but shalt possess
    A paradise within thee, happier far.

    Now rest in peace, our patriot band;
    Though far from nature’s limits thrown,
    We trust they find a happier land,
    A brighter sunshine of their own.
    Philip Freneau (1752–1832)

    ... the wife of an executive would be a better wife had she been a secretary first. As a secretary, you learn to adjust to the boss’s moods. Many marriages would be happier if the wife would do that.
    Anne Bogan, U.S. executive secretary. As quoted in Working, book 1, by Studs Terkel (1973)
