Results from Cole's Quotables:

No one is completely unhappy at the failure of his best friend.: Groucho Marx (1890 - 1977)
I feel that you are justified in looking into the future with true assurance, because you have a mode of living in which we find the joy of life and the joy of work harmoniously combined. Added to this is the spirit of ambition which pervades your very being, and seems to make the day's work like a happy child at play.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955), (referring to America)
Happy is he who can give himself up.: Naguib Mahfouz

Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as I live it is my privilege - my *privilege* to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I love. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me; it is a sort of splendid torch which I've got a hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.: George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
[F]or academic men to be happy, the universe would have to take shape. All of philosophy has no other goal: it is a matter of giving a frock coat to what is, a mathematical frock coat. On the other hand, affirming that the universe resembles nothing and is only formless amounts to saying that the universe is something like a spider or spit.: Battaille
The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead.: Ann Landers (1918 - 2002)
Any ordinary man can...surround himself with two thousand books...and thenceforward have at least one place in the world in which it is possible to be happy.: Augustine Birrell
There's only one way to have a happy marriage and as soon as I learn what it is I'll get married again.: Clint Eastwood (1930 - )
Men are the only animals that devote themselves, day in and day out, to making one another unhappy. It is an art like any other. Its virtuosi are called altruists.: H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
