“I have grown to believe:
That the one thing worth aiming at is simplicity of heart and life;
That one’s relations with others should be direct, not diplomatic;
That power leaves a bitter taste in the mouth;
That meanness and hardness and coldness are the unforgivable sins;
That conventionality is the mother of dreariness;
That pleasure exists not in the virtue of material conditions, but in the joyful heart;
That the world is a very interesting and beautiful place;
That congenial labor is the secret of happiness.”
~ Arthur Christopher Benson
