“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

and
“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

and
“Living is Easy with Eyes Closed.”




Camille Saint-Saëns (1835 - 1921):
