Storm Jameson

16.
There is something ridiculous and even quite indecent in an individual claiming to be happy. Still more a people or a nation making such a claim. The pursuit of happiness... is without any question the most fatuous which could possibly be undertaken. This lamentable phrase the pursuit of happiness is responsible for a good part of the ills and miseries of the modern world.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

Ginott, Haim

23.
Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of unhappiness.
Lao-Tzu

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

25.
Those who seek happiness miss it, and those who discuss it, lack it.
Jackson, Holbrook

26.
It is the paradox of life that the way to miss pleasure is to seek it first. The very first condition of lasting happiness is that a life should be full of purpose, aiming at something outside self.
Black, Hugo

Bierce, Ambrose

What ever our wandering our happiness will always be found within a narrow compass, and in the middle of the objects more immediately within our reach.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

42.
Like swimming, riding, writing, or playing golf, happiness can be learned.
Sokoloff, Boris

43.
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.

Twain, Mark

50.
Happiness consists of three things; Someone to love, work to do, and a clear conscience.
