Happiness

Happiness spoken of by the mouth cannot be compared to that which speaks from the eyes… to that which flows from the heart.

Addicted to good

I’m done for…

“Cuddy,

you see the world as it is

And you see the world as it could be.

What you don’t see

Is what everybody else sees,

The giant gaping chasm in between…

Your not happy unless things are just right –

Which means two things:

• Your a good boss
• and you will never be happy.

FROM Dr. House, 2  Season, “Humpty Dumpty”

Thomas

…Thank you for coming on our program today  (Enthusiastic applause – followed by a brief pause)

Given the state of things Thomas would you mind sharing your opinions with our audience.

Well Exuvia,

“The most successful war seldom pays for its losses.”

“I love peace, and am anxious that we should give the world still another useful lesson, by showing to them other modes of punishing injuries than by war, which is as much a punishment to the punisher as to the sufferer.”

“Having seen the people of all other nations bowed down to the earth under the wars and prodigalities of their rulers, I have cherished their opposites, peace, economy, and riddance of public debt, believing that these were the high road to public as well as private prosperity and happiness.”

“I have seen enough of one war never to wish to see another.”

Thank you ladies and gentlemen that was Thomas Jefferson!

We will be back right after the commercials.

“After much occasion to consider the folly and mischiefs of a state of warfare, and the little or no advantage obtained even by those nations who have conducted it with the most success, I have been apt to think that there has never been, or ever will be, any such thing as a good war, or a bad peace.”

Benjamin Franklin to Jonathan Shipley, June 10, 1782
