Happiness is the product of just one field

 

 

Give me, ye gods, the product of one field,

That so I neither may be rich nor poor;

And having just enough, not covet more.

-- John Dryden

Happiness is in nothing too little and nothing too much

 

 

Avoid extremes, and shun the faults of such

Who still are pleas'd too little, or too much.

-- Alexander Pope

Happiness is Curly as Field Marshall Herring saying "it's now in the middle of Novonder and we ain't there yet!"

Dictator Heilstone: "Now, that we have captured all of Starvania, we must take Great Mitten!"

Field Marshall Herring: "Yah-Yah!"

Dictator Heilstone: "Yah!"

Minister of Propaganda: "Yah, you were gonna Blitz-Kreeg Great Mitten by the middle of August!"

Field Marshall Herring: "Then you said, Septober, then Octember, it's now in the middle of Novonder, and we ain't there yet!"

Dictator Heilstone: "Well, Novonder, I didn't say what year!"

Minister of Propaganda: "I don't understand it, it's only twenty miles!"

Field Marshall Herring: "Yeah, I could skip it!"

Dictator Heilstone: "Then, skip it!"

-- from The Three Stooges, "I'll Never Heil Again", July 11, 1941

Happiness is Dave Coverly's Achilles' heels

Happiness is culture, the tradition of enjoyment which knows how to make much out of little

"Culture [is] the tradition of enjoyment which knows how to make much out of little . . . and cannot be had for money. ... [T]heoreticians, poets, and musicians . . . these alone can thrive on no money."

-- Oswald Spengler, The Hour of Decision, 1934

Happiness is Keith Richard stinkin' up his very own library
