Hands down one of the best books I have ever read. I never expected to laugh out loud at a book as much as this book made me laugh!! Stuie is sooo bonHands down one of the best books I have ever read. I never expected to laugh out loud at a book as much as this book made me laugh!! Stuie is sooo bonkers and silly. I feel that the only way anyone can go into depth about topics as profound as the topics discussed in this book- is by not being serious. The chapters are short, efficient, and clear. The tone is REAL and hilarious. The subject matter = the gems of life. I was also sick while reading this book and it helped me feel so much better and led me to so many profound realizations and epiphanies in my life. He provides so many helpful exercises and perspectives. I’ll be taking notes on this book forever. Thank you Stuie you silly old bird...more

"if it scares youAN OPTIMIST IS THE MOST RADICAL THING YOU CAN BE.
"MAGIC bursts from EVERY CORNER of reality"
"GREAT possibilities often APPEAR impossible"
"if it scares you it's probably worth doing"
"WHEN YOU BECOME ON THE OUTSIDE THE WAY YOU SEE YOURSELF INSIDE YOU ARE TRULY FREE"
"only optimists have the guts to follow the pretty visions in their minds."
"FREEDOM is the ability to accept insecurity"
THE FOUR FREEDOMS as articulated by Franklin D. Roosevelt 1) Freedom of Speech 2) Freedom of Worship 3) Freedom from Want 4) Freedom from Fear
"why not wake each bright new morning so sizzling with the fat of life that you crackle and burn and almost explode with the big and small things that make life miraculous"
"selfies are deadly"
"Optimism is HOPE that sees POTENTIAL in the impossible"
"when I look out my window I see a beautiful world"
"In those holy waters, I understood. Life's a miracle that lasts only a moment, and because of that, you should always go swimming. Always, always."
"My work ethic is to limit work."
"Everything fades. Life is transient. It's tragic. But you know what? It's also why The world is so heartbreakingly beautiful"
"They say you have to work hard to get what you want. Lies! All of them! We bums don't have to live in fear of so-called poverty. We don't have much money, sure, but money isn't real anyways. Look at all of THIS! This is what's real. The best things in life are free, and anyone who thinks otherwise is living in TRUE poverty."
"If you stay out of news and politics, you'll find many reasons to be an optimist."
"The survival of the SOUL depends on an unrelenting QUEST for an undiminished LIFE"
"J.R. and I have no heat in the bus, because we hold firm to the conviction that discomfort is a crucial component of joyful living. Today's society is generally an overinsulated place, and we escape that. Sometimes that means we suffer. Mostly it means that when our five-gallon water bottle starts freezing solid, we really should scoot south."
"I knew I'd never see those particular snowflakes fall again, and I knew the magic of the morning would dissipate soon. How miraculous it was to be sitting there at all. Sometimes I can't breathe in deeply enough. I want to inhale the world into my lungs. Sometimes every moment is so meaningful I could cry.
"If life isn't a broken mirror glued together by paradox, I don't know what it is."
"Wild horses galloped across the expanse of the land, and I almost cried watching them, knowing I was a human and they were horses and what was the difference between us anyway."
"Time became an accessory to everything evil. At one point, I saved the Great MacGuffin from a near death. He went to look at his wristwatch, and just in time, I slapped him across the face. What was wrong with him? Was he a fool? Didn't he know the face of that watch would inject him with venom if he wasn't careful?"
"Here's something only a bum could tell you. Once you follow the laws of Optimism, once you focus on the beautiful abundance all around you, you become the most radical radical there is. And happy to boot."

Highly recommend to all. ...more

The author uses so many helpful analogies for core principles that once I saw them spelled out, it was suddenly impossible to choose not to embody these principles for life. The chapters that made the strongest impressions on me are:
Chapter 7: Transcending the Tendency to Close Chapter 8: Let Go Now or Fall Chapter 9: Removing Your Inner Thorn Chapter 15: The Path of Unconditional Happiness Chapter 17: Contemplating Death
