"Faith: Belief without evidence in what is told by one who speaks without knowledge, of things without parallel." "Litigant. A person about to give up his skin for the hope of retaining his bones." More In Happiness "There may be Peace without Joy, and Joy without Peace, but the two combined make Happiness."― John Buchan "Whoever said money can’t buy happiness simply didn’t know where to go shopping."― Bo Derek "Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values."― Ayn Rand
