  • Lighten grief with hopes of a brighter morrow; Temper joy, in fear of a change of fortune.

    Horace (1936). “Complete Works”
  • Joys do not fall to the rich alone; nor has he lived ill of whose birth and death no one took note.

  • Happy the man, and happy he alone, he who can call today his own: he who, secure within, can say, tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today. Be fair or foul or rain or shine, the joys I have possessed, in spite of fate, are mine. Not Heaven itself upon the past has power, but what has been, has been, and I have had my hour.

  • You traverse the world in search of happiness which is within the reach of every man. A contented mind confers it on all.

  • Without love and laughter there is no joy; live amid love and laughter.

  • While I am sane I shall compare nothing to the joy of a friend.

  • Joy, grief, desire or fear, whate'er the name The passion bears, its influence is the same; Where things exceed your hope or fall below, You stare, look blank, grow numb from top to toe.

    Horace (2013). “Delphi Complete Works of Horace (Illustrated)”, p.364, Delphi Classics
