"It is better to suffer wrong than to do it, and happier to be sometimes cheated than not to trust." ― Samuel Johnson Topic(s): Great Tags: better, suffer More From Samuel Johnson "We are long before we are convinced that happiness is never to be found, and each believes it possessed by others, to keep alive the hope of obtaining it for himself." "All the arguments which are brought to represent poverty as no evil show it evidently to be a great evil." "By taking a second wife he pays the highest compliment to the first, by showing that she made him so happy as a married man, that he wishes to be so a second time." More In Great "Some argue that now isn’t the time to push the green agenda – that all efforts should be on preventing a serious recession. That is a false choice. It fails to recognise that climate change and our carbon reliance is part of problem – high fuel prices and food shortages due to poor crop yields compound today’s financial difficulties."― Lucy Powell "Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated."― Coretta Scott King "In this world you’ve just got to hope for the best and prepare for the worst and take whatever God sends."― Lucy Maud Montgomery
