Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meanderings, but leads none of us by the same route. Charles C. Colton
Happiness is always a by-product. It is probably a matter of temperament, and for anything I know it may be glandular.

Robertson Davies
