“A really great talent finds its happiness in execution.”

“Look, I'm going to find a way to be happy, and I'd really love to be happy with you, but if I can't be happy with you, then I'll find a way to be happy without you.”

“There is great danger of not, in happiness, finding our delight in the Lord.”

“I read a book not to find its meaning, but to find my happiness.”

“A state which dwarfs its men, in order that they may be more docile instruments in its hands even for beneficial purposes--will find that with small men no great thing can really be accomplished.”

“We go on this voyage to find happiness.
You see? A smile really suits you.”

“It is a happy talent to know how to play.”

“Happiness is a how, not a what. A talent, not an object.”

“I am, really, a great writer; my only difficulty is in finding great readers.”

“The sword and the purse, all the external relations, and no inconsiderable portion of the industry of the nation, are entrusted to its government. It can never be pretended that these vast powers draw after them others of inferior importance, merely because they are inferior. Such an idea can never be advanced. But it may with great reason be contended, that a government, entrusted with such ample powers, on the due execution of which the happiness and prosperity of the nation so vitally depends, must also be entrusted with ample means for their execution. The power being given, it is the interest of the nation to facilitate its execution. It can never be their interest, and cannot be presumed to have been their intention, to clog and embarrass its execution by withholding the most appropriate means.”
