if you cannot change all the people around you, you can change the people you
choose to be around. Life is too short to waste your time on people who don’t
respect, appreciate, and value you. Spend your life with people who make you
smile, laugh, and feel loved.”

“Name
one hero who was happy."

father; Jason's children and new wife were murdered by his old; Bellerophon

"You
can't." He was sitting up now, leaning forward.
"I
can't."
"I
know. They never let you be famous AND happy." He lifted an eyebrow.
"I'll tell you a secret."
"Tell
me." I loved it when he was like this.
"I'm
going to be the first." He took my palm and held it to his. "Swear
it."
"Why
me?"
"Because
you're the reason. Swear it."
"I
swear it," I said, lost in the high color of his cheeks, the flame in his
eyes.
"I
swear it," he echoed.
We
sat like that a moment, hands touching. He grinned.
"I
feel like I could eat the world raw.”

“Happiness
is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist
upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to
participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once
you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about
maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that
happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.”
―
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
