“With this recognition of the finality of death, no one should willingly withhold acts that would bring benefits, joy or happiness to others.”

“It's… a transcendental act. Making life. I thought about that when I was carrying Miles. 'By this act, I bring one death into the world.' One birth, one death, and all the pain and acts of will between.”

“The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realize a lot of happiness. One word, one action, one thought can reduce another person’s suffering and bring that person joy.”

“Now the longed-for signal has appeared. Yet when happiness comes
it brings less joy than one expected.”

“Love should bring joy, it should grant a person peace, but here and not, it was bringing only pain.”

“As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.”

“Ancient Egyptians believed that upon death they would be asked two questions and their answers would determine whether they could continue their journey in the afterlife. The first question was, 'Did you bring joy?' The second was, 'Did you find joy?”

“Outside of that single fatality of death, everything, joy or happiness, is liberty.”

“You get more joy out of the giving to others, and should put a good deal of thought into the happiness you are able to give.”

“Sadness when there should be Joy, hatred when there should be love show compassion because we can be more because we both have scars and pain that no one will ever understand but us so be with me not against me and bring us where we were happy and free.”
