20,000 Quips & Quotes
I've squandered smiles today,
And, strange to say,
Altho' my frowns with care I've stowed away,
Tonight I'm poorer far in frowns than at the start;
While in my heart,
Wherein my treasures best I store,
I find my smiles increased by several score.
JOHN KENDRICK BANGS

LYDIA HOWARD SIGOURNEY

THICH NHAT HANH
Being Peace
There is a smile of love,
And there is a smile of deceit,
And there is a smile of smiles
In which these two smiles meet.
WILLIAM BLAKE
"The Smile", Poems from the Pickering Manuscript
We human beings are very proud of being the only animals that can smile. And yet we don't show a very proper appreciation of our gift. Though we may realize its magical qualities, we often fail at the critical moment to use them. For example, we may know that when we have to choose between smiling and frowning the consequences will greatly affect our own peace of mind. If we frown we shall be further involved in trouble. If we smile we may obviate the trouble.

Smiling is one of the most important social cues, and people have been doing it since forever. Actually, smiling predates the existence of modern people by quite a lot. Primatologist Signe Preuschoft traces the smile back over 30 million years of evolution to a "fear grin" stemming from monkeys and apes.

A smile is like a candle in a lonely darkened room,
Proving light is always master over dreary, dark and gloom.
J. P. LUCAS
Wisteria: Fresh Flowers from an Old Vine
People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile.
JUDITH GUEST
Ordinary People
Those happy smilets,
That play'd on her ripe lip, seem'd not to know
What guests were in her eyes; which parted thence,
As pearls from diamonds dropp'd.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
King Lear
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
CELTIC WOMAN
"Smile"
A smile is not true or false in the manner in which a conceptual meaning is true or false. It is truth in the sense in which one can say that a person is true, a thing is true. But it is usually not true in the sense in which a proposition is true or false.
BERNARD LONERGAN
