Don't Worry, Be Happy

It is not work that kills men, it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more on a man than he can bear. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the machinery, but friction. - Henry Ward Beecher

Never let life's hardships disturb you ... no one can avoid problems, not even saints or sages. - Nichiren Daishonen

Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight. - Benjamin Franklin

The mind that is anxious about future events is miserable.- Seneca

Present fears are less than horrible imaginings.- William Shakespeare

It is idle to dread what you cannot avoid. - Publius Syrus

The rose is fairest when 't is budding new,
and hope is brightest when it dawns from fears.
- Walter Scott
