Happy is the man who always looks on the bright side of everything, and through life’s ups and downs lets himself be guided by reason. What will only make others weep will be for him a source of laughter, and in the midst of the whirlwinds of the world he will find peace.

From the finale of Cosi Fan Tutte, by W. A. Mozart and Lorenzo Da Ponte
