Our happiness is built by attitude and intention. Attitude is not everything, but it’s almost everything. I visited the jazz great Jane Jarvis when she was old, crippled and living in a tiny apartment with a window facing a brick wall.

You take it for granted that a sentence begun will be finished. You are in the midst of speaking yourself.
