Friday's Five - Joy


A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness. - John Keats
I sometimes wonder whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy. - C. S. Lewis
The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again. - Charles Dickens
Be good, keep your feet dry, your eyes open, your heart at peace and your soul in the joy of Christ. - Thomas Merton
A laugh, to be joyous, must flow from a joyous heart, for without kindness, there can be no true joy. - Thomas Carlyle
