“Happiness doesn't lie in conspicuous consumption and the relentless amassing of useless crap. Happiness lies in the person sitting beside you and your ability to talk to them. Happiness is clear-headed human interaction and empathy. Happiness is home. And home is not a house-home is a mythological conceit. It is a state of mind. A place of communion and unconditional love. It is where, when you cross its threshold, you finally feel at peace.”
― Dennis Lehane

“You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget.”
― Cormac McCarthy, The Road

“Success is not what you have done compared to what others have done. Success is what you have done compared to what you were supposed to do.”
― Tony Evans
