O God! methinks it were a happy life,To be no better than a homely swain;To sit upon a hill, as I do now,To carve out dials quaintly, point by point,Thereby to see the minutes how they run,How many make the hour full complete;How many hours bring about the day;How many days will finish up the year;How many years a mortal man may live.
Tis a happy thing To be the father unto many sons.
Fair thoughts and happy hours attend on you.
A happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story
Happy is your Grace That can translate the stubbornness of fortune Into so quiet and so sweet a style
Happy are they that hear their detractions, and can put them to mending
Silence is the perfectos herald of joy. I were but little happy if I could say how much.
Seek happy nights to happy days.W
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.
You have stayed me in a happy hour.
Love is merely a madness.
The golden age is before us, not behind us.
Go girl, seek happy nights to happy days.
What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted! Thrice is he armed that hath his quarrel just, and he but naked, though locked up in steel, whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
