"The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life." ― William Morris Topic(s): Happiness More From William Morris "A man at work, making something which he feels will exist because he is working at it and wills it, is exercising the energies of his mind and soul as well as of his body. Memory and imagination help him as he works." "So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die." "I do not want art for a few any more than education for a few, or freedom for a few." More In Happiness "I keep mementos from everything I’ve done. I’ve got my cab driver’s license from ‘Happiness.’ I’ve got a pair of glasses and a belt buckle from playing John Lennon. I’ve got a pair of sunglasses from playing Andy Warhol… It’s all in a box in the garage."― Jared Harris "The greatest of follies is to sacrifice health for any other kind of happiness."― Arthur Schopenhauer "Five or six hundred heads cut off would have assured your repose, freedom and happiness."― Jean-Paul Marat
