生活中沒有喜悅，一切都微不足道。生活中沒有一點幽默，人生不會有什麼意義。
歡笑是最好的藥物。不論發生什麼事，都要試著把喜悅帶到那時刻！
聽神談【關於「喜悅」與「人生」的忠告】
喜悅是一種比任何其他都優先重要的生活態度。
它使一切變得有可能。沒有喜悅，一切都微不足道。
我是說，除非你在生活中有點幽默，否則人生將不會有什麼意義。
我是說，歡笑是最好的藥物。
我是說，喜悅對靈魂有益。
我還要更進一步的說，喜悅即靈魂(Joy is the soul.)。
靈魂即那你會稱為喜悅的東西。
純粹、無盡、無攙雜、無限制、無拘無束的喜悅。那是靈魂的天性。
微笑是你靈魂對外的窗。大笑是門。
尼爾：哦，哇！
哇，沒錯。
尼爾：靈魂為何如此快樂？而人們並不是那樣？我的意思是，人的靈魂是那樣快樂，人們看來卻沒有那樣快樂。所以，這是怎麼回事？
這是個非常好的問題。如果靈魂是如此充滿喜樂，為什麼你們不是？這是一個很好的問題。
答案就在你們的心智（mind）裡。如果你要釋放出你心中（heart）的喜悅的話，就必須「有意地」讓心智處於喜悅。
摘自《與神為友》第13章
"Totally joyful."
I'm saying that it comes before anything else.
It is what makes everything possible. Without joy, there is nothing.
I'm saying that unless you get a little humor in your life, none of it is going to make any sense. I'm saying that laughter is the best medicine.
I'm saying that joy is good for the soul.
I'll go further than that. joy is the soul. The soul is that which you would call joy. Pure joy. Endless joy. Unadulterated, unlimited, unrestricted joy. That is the nature of the soul.
A smile is a window to your soul. Laughter is the door.
Neale: Oh, wow.
Wow, indeed.
Neale: Why is the soul so happy? People aren't that happy. I mean, the people whose souls these are don't seem all that happy, so what's going on here?
That's a wonderful question. If the soul is so joyous, why aren't you? That's a perfectly wonderful question.
The answer lies in your mind. You must "be of a mind" to be joyful if you are to release the joy that is in your heart.
