Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
Happiness comes when we test our skills towards some meaningful purpose.
Stossel, John

2.
Most people ask for happiness on condition. Happiness can only be felt if you don't set any condition.
Rubinstein, Arthur

3.
There is no greater joy than that of feeling oneself a creator. The triumph of life is expressed by creation.
Bergson, Henri L.

4.
Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
Dumas, Alexandre

Byron, Lord

9.
Happiness comes from... some curious adjustment to life.
Walpole, Sir Hugh

10.
The final moment of success is often no more thrilling than taking off a heavy backpack at the end of a long hike. If you went on the hike only to feel that pleasure, you are a fool. Yet people sometimes do just this. They work hard at a task and expect some special euphoria at the end. But when they achieve success and find only moderate and short-lived pleasure, they ask is that all there is? They devalue their accomplishments as a striving after wind. We can call this the progress principle: Pleasure comes more from making progress toward goals than from achieving them.
Jonathan Haidt

11.
Do not weep; do not wax indignant. Understand.
Baruch Spinoza

12.
Happiness is an agreeable sensation, arising from contemplating the misery of others.
Bierce, Ambrose

13.
Be it jewel or toy, not the prize gives the joy, but the striving to win the prize.
Meredith, Owen

14.
Many people have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
Keller, Helen

15.
Happiness includes chiefly the idea of satisfaction after full honest effort. No one can possibly be satisfied and no one can be happy who feels that in some paramount affairs he failed to take up the challenge of life.
Bennett, Arnold

16.
It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

17.
I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not to be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies. To be certain, every day there can be a revelation or a new discovery. I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.
Lee, Bruce

18.
We take greater pains to persuade others we are happy than in trying to think so ourselves.
Confucius

If happiness is activity in accordance with excellence, it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence.
Aristotle

We are happy when for everything inside us there is a corresponding something outside us.
Yeats, William Butler

Happiness is a how, not a what: a talent, not an object
Hesse, Hermann

Unhappiness is not knowing what we want, and killing ourselves to get it.
Herold, Don

Happiness and virtue rest upon each other; the best are not only the happiest, but the happiest are usually the best.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

24.
Happiness adds and multiplies, as we divide it with others.
Nielsen, A.

25.
Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.
Strindberg, J. August

No thoroughly occupied man was ever yet very miserable.
Landon, Letitia Elizabeth

Farrall, Joseph

Happiness is not best achieved by those who seek it directly.
Russell, Bertrand
