Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously.

We have seen better days.

Life gets better as you replace transactions with relationships.

Life is a success.

He now felt glad at having suffered sorrow and trouble, because it enabled him to enjoy so much better all the pleasure and happiness around him;

Life is a miracle, and being aware of simply this can already make us very happy.

We have become accustomed to living our life with joy amidst pain and challenges.

My day has been a pleasant one. My joys have far exceeded my sorrows and my friends have brought me far more than my enemies have taken from me.

Life becomes easier and more beautiful when we can see the good in other people.

A sign of a life well lived: you get happier as you age.

One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.

Things are better now than things have been since men began keeping track of things. Things are better than they were only a few years ago. Things are better, in fact, than they were at 9:30 this morning, thanks to Tylenol and two Bloody Marys. But that's personal and history is general. It's always possible to come down with the mumps on V-J Day or to have, right in the middle of the fall of the Berlin Wall, a piece of it fall on your foot. In general, life is better than it ever has been, and if you think that, in the past, there was some golden age of pleasure and plenty to which you would, if you were able, transport yourself, let me say one single word: 'dentistry.'

More smiling, less worrying. More compassion, less judgment. More blessed, less stressed. More love, less hate.
