GAYETy quotes
Gayety is often the reckless ripple over depths of despair.
Gayety is not a proof that the heart is at ease, for often in the midst of laughter the heart is sad.
Leaves seem light, useless, idle, wavering, and changeable—they even dance; yet God has made them part of the oak.—So he has given us a lesson, not to deny stout-heartedness within, because we see lightsomeness without.
Gayety is to good humor, as animal perfumes to vegetable fragrance: the one overpowers weak spirits, the other recreates and revives them.
