Quote of the day: "Happiness is your own responsibility"

Jennifer Garner, who played Sydney Bristow on the TV show Alias, is an amazing actress and (from what I've read) sounds like an equally amazing person -- classy, professional, wise, and grounded. She has been quoted in many places on the internet (I couldn't find a reputable source, but I assume she really said it), saying that her mom always told her:

Happiness is your own responsibility.

A good thing to remember.
