Preservation of life is the only true joy.
The interior joy we feel when we have done a good deed is the nourishment the soul requires.
Joy, sorrow, tears, lamentation, laughter -- to all these music gives voice, but in such a way that we are transported from the world of unrest to a world of peace, and see reality in a new way, as if we were sitting by a mountain lake and contemplating hills and woods and clouds in the tranquil and fathomless water.
There is within each of us a modulation, an inner exaltation, which lifts us above the buffetings with which events assail us. Likewise, it lifts us above dependence upon the gifts of events for our joy.
Love . . . includes fellowship in suffering, in joy and in effort.
Joy, sorrow, tears, lamentation, laughter -- to all these music gives voice
If you truly desire happiness, seek and learn how to serve.
