Sitting around miserable all day won't make you any happier.
If I can make someone's day brighter, happier, better, that makes me happier.
Expectations make people miserable, so whatever yours are, lower them. You'll definitely be happier.
We make our days pleasant or miserable. If we insist on being miserable, irritable and nasty, more than likely the day will give us exactly what we give it. A day is too valuable to waste on misery and unhappiness.
Miserable is a good thing, though. If you start the day miserable, nobody else can screw up your day.
I'm not done yet making people miserable. If they're going to make me miserable, then I'm going to make them miserable.
Sleep is the secret of life! I must have a comfortable bed, a room at exactly 60 degrees, and complete darkness like a tomb to sleep. If I don't get 10 hours, then I'm miserable and I make everyone around me miserable.
Back in the day, prior to rock and roll, music halls, concert venues were segregated if they allowed black people in at all. You know, there were ropes that went around the sitting sections with signs hanging that would say, 'Sitting for white patrons only,' or 'Colored sitting only.'

Christmas for me is all about spending time with my family. I cherish any chance we have to spend all day together making gingerbread houses, baking cookies, or sitting around and watching movies.
God wants to use you to make other people happy! And the happier you make others, the happier you will be because you reap what you sow.
Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable?
Anything is better than sitting around waiting for the right movie to come along. I lose my edge when I'm sitting around the pool not working.
One thing that I think most people don't notice is that if you're sitting around telling yourself, 'I want to be happier,' there's a kind of subconscious message that you're also telling yourself at the same time, which is, 'What I have is not enough.'
I'm trying to be slightly happier with myself. No one really wants to be miserable all the time.
The artist must be like that Marine. He has to know how to be miserable. He has to love being miserable. He has to take pride in being more miserable than any soldier or swabbie or jet jockey. Because this is war, baby. And war is hell.
