• The duty of happiness becomes clearer when we see how it affects others.

• A man's inner nature is revealed by what he praises-a man is self-judged by what he says of others. Thus a man is judged by his standards, by what he considers the best. And you can't find a more crucial test. It reveals the soul.

  8 Copiar cita

• If happiness is a state of the inward life, we have to look for its chief obstructions not in outward conditions but in deeper places. Happiness depends in the last issue, as we saw, on the essential view of life. It is not a matter of distractions, nor even of mere pleasurable sensations. There may be an appearance of great prosperity with incurable sadness hidden at the heart, as there is an outward peace which is only a well-masked despair. The way to happiness is indeed harder than the way to success; for its chief enemies entrench themselves within the soul.

  Hugh Black (1911). “Happiness”

  7 Copiar cita

• It is the paradox of life that the way to miss pleasure is to seek it first. The very first condition of lasting happiness is that a life should be full of purpose, aiming at something outside self. As a matter of experience, we find that true happiness comes in seeking other things, in the manifold activities of life, in the healthful outgoing of all human powers.

• In the relationship of friends: "Each gives to the other, and each receives, and the fruit of the intercourse is more than either in himself possesses. Every individual relationship has contact with a universal. To reach out to the fuller life of love is a divine enchantment, because it leads to more than itself, and is the open door into the mystery of life".

• Los amigos deben ser elegidos por un principio de selección más elevado que cualquier principio mundano. Deben ser elegidos por su carácter, por su bondad, por su verdad y honradez, porque simpatizan con nosotros en nuestros mejores pensamientos y en nuestras más santas aspiraciones, porque tienen comunidad de espíritu en las cosas del alma.
