Samuel Johnson's Quote

The following is a quote I like. Don't know anything about the author, but giving credit where credit is due, I am letting you know Sam Johnson wrote it. He said...

"The fountain of contentment must spring up in the mind. He who hath so little knowledge of human nature as to seek happiness by changing anything but his own disposition, will waste his life in fruitless efforts and multiply the grief he proposes to remove."

In other words, the only way we will be content is when we spend time trying to improve ourselves, instead of trying to change everyone else! Sounds like a good "life-lesson" to me. Trying to change everyone else just makes you miserable.
