Motivational Quotes
Happiness
Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember.
Best Quotes about Happiness
Be it jewel or toy, not the prize gives the joy, but the striving to win the prize.
Meredith, Owen
The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase; if you pursue happiness you'll never find it.
C. P. Snow
I've grown to realize the joy that comes from little victories is preferable to the fun that comes from ease and the pursuit of pleasure.
Lawana Blackwell
Happiness is a by product of an effort to make someone else happy.
Palmer, Gretta Brooker
Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember.
Oscar Levant
Laughing is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one spot.
Josh Billings
Our happiness depends on the habit of mind we cultivate. So practice happy thinking every day. Cultivate the merry heart, develop the happiness habit, and life will become a continual feast.
Peale, Norman Vincent
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
Dalai Lama
My happiness derives from knowing the people I love are happy.
Ketchel, Holly
We are long before we are convinced that happiness is never to be found; and each believes it possessed by others, to keep alive the hope of obtaining it for himself.
Johnson, Samuel
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.
Waitley, Denis
Happiness consists more in small conveniences of pleasures that occur every day, than in great pieces of good fortune that happen but seldom to a man in the course of his life.
Franklin, Benjamin
Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower, and draws all good things toward you. Allow your love to nourish yourself as well as others. Do not strain after the needs of life. It is sufficient to be quietly alert and aware of them. In this way life proceeds more naturally and effortlessly. Life is here to Enjoy!
Yogi, Maharishi Mahesh
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
Eddie Cantor
A mind always employed is always happy. This is the true secret, the grand recipe, for felicity.
Jefferson, Thomas
Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Addison, Joseph
No one is in control of your happiness but you; therefore, you have the power to change anything about yourself or your life that you want to change.
Angelis, Barbara De
Point me out the happy man and I will point you out either egotism, selfishness, evil --or else an absolute ignorance.
Greene, Graham
We are happy when for everything inside us there is a corresponding something outside us.
Yeats, William Butler
Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier.
Young, Margaret
Happiness lies neither in vice nor in virtue; but in the manner we appreciate the one and the other, and the choice we make pursuant to our individual organization.
Sade, Marquis De
Where there is joy there is creation. Where there is no joy there is no creation: know the nature of joy.
Upanishads, Veda
Scarcely one person in a thousand is capable of tasting the happiness of others.
Fielding, Henry
If you were happy every day of your life you wouldn't be a human being, you'd be a game show host.
Heatter, Gabriel
We all want to be happy, and we're all going to die. You might say those are the only two unchallengeably true facts that apply to every human being on this planet.
Boyd, William
It seldom happens that any felicity comes so pure as not to be tempered and allayed by some mixture of sorrow.
Cervantes, Miguel De
All I can say about life is, Oh God, enjoy it!
Bob Newhart
If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.
Epicurus
And isn't that, at it's core, what the princess fantasy is about for all of us? "Princess" is how we tell little girls that they are special, precious. "Princess" is the wish that we could protect them from pain, that they would never know sorrow, that they will live happily ever after ensconces in lace and innocence.
Peggy Orenstein
Happiness arises in a state of peace, not of tumult.
Ann Radcliffe
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
Saroyan, William
Happiness seems made to be shared.
Corneille, Pierre
Personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a checklist of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications are not your life.
J.K. Rowling
Happiness is not so much in having or sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Macewan, Norman
I can sympathize with people's pains, but not with their pleasures. There is something curiously boring about somebody else's happiness.
Huxley, Aldous
The journey to happiness involves finding the courage to go down into ourselves and take responsibility for what's there: all of it.
Rohr, Richard
Happiness is a how, not a what: a talent, not an object
Hesse, Hermann
Happiness: a good bank account, a good cook and a good digestion.
Jean Jacques Rousseau
The most happy man is he who knows how to bring into relation the end and beginning of his life.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Let no one till his death be called unhappy. Measure not the work until the day's out and the labor done.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.
Schachtel, Rabbi H.
There is no greater joy than that of feeling oneself a creator. The triumph of life is expressed by creation.
Bergson, Henri L.
I am more and more convinced that our happiness or our unhappiness depends far more on the way we meet the events of life than on the nature of those events themselves.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von
We think a happy life consists in tranquility of mind.
Cicero, Marcus T.
A person will be just about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Lincoln, Abraham
Nothing is funnier than unhappiness, I grant you that. Yes, yes, it's the most comical thing in the world.
Beckett, Samuel
Men expect that religion should cost them no pains, that happiness should drop into their laps without any design and endeavor on their part, and that, after they have done what they please while they live, God should snatch them up to heaven when they die. But though the commandments of God be not grievous, yet it is fit to let men know that they are not thus easy.
Tillotson, John
I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.
Muggeridge, Malcolm
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.
Wilde, Oscar
We are made happy when reason can discover no occasion for it. The memory of some past moments is more persuasive than the experience of present ones. There have been visions of such breadth and brightness that these motes were invisible in their light.
Thoreau, Henry David
