I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.

To reach a port we must sail, sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it. But we must not drift or lie at anchor.

To reach a port, we must sail - sail, not tie at anchor - sail, not drift.

If Heaven exists, to know that there's laughter, that would be a great thing.

The great thing in the world is not so much to seek happiness as to earn peace and self-respect.
