If our condition were truly happy, we would not seek diversion from it in order to make ourselves happy.Blaise Pascal
The weather and my mood have little connection. I have my foggy and my fine days within me; my prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter.Blaise Pascal
I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death... I think... peace and tranquillity will return again.Anne Frank
I have often been downcast but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary, I treat all the privations as amusing.Anne Frank
It's in responsibility that most people find the meaning that sustains them through life. It's not in happiness. It's not in impulsive pleasure.Jordan Peterson
And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren't any other people living in the world.Anne Frank
