No man can be happy without imparting a share of happiness to others; no man can be miserable without reflecting a portion of his misery upon others. Hence, let us cultivate happiness and root out misery, as we would a poisonous weed, from the world!
James Eddy, Thoughts on Religion and Morality, p. 40 (Unitarian, Free Religious Movement, entrepreneur, engraver, art curator, abolitionist, temperance advocate, social reformer)
