Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.
Maslow, Abraham H.

2.
Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meandering, but leads none of us by the same route
Colton, Charles Caleb

3.
Happiness consists in activity -- it is a running stream, not a stagnant pool.
Mason, John L.

4.
Happiness was not made to be boasted, but enjoyed. Therefore tho others count me miserable, I will not believe them if I know and feel myself to be happy; nor fear them.
Traherne, Thomas

5.
There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.
Dyer, Wayne

Such happiness as life is capable of comes from the full participation of all our powers in the endeavor to wrest from each changing situations of experience its own full and unique meaning.
Dewey, John

The happy think a lifetime short, but to the unhappy one night can be an eternity.
Lucian

8.
It isn't necessary to be rich and famous to be happy. It's only necessary to be rich.
Alda, Alan

We are no longer happy as soon as we wish to be happier.
Landor, Walter Savage

Happiness is a journey not a destination.
Sweetland, Ben

The Greeks said grandly in their tragic phrase, Let no one be called happy till his death; to which I would add, Let no one, till his death be called unhappy.

Happiness is a continuation of happenings which are not resisted.
Chopra, Deepak

Laughing is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one spot.
Josh Billings

Happiness is a matter of one's most ordinary everyday mode of consciousness being busy and lively and unconcerned with self. To be damned is for one's ordinary everyday mode of consciousness to be unremitting agonizing preoccupation with self.
Murdoch, Iris

28.
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

29.
It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De

30.
A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.
Downs, Hugh

31.
Happiness is never stopping to think if you are.
Sondreal, Palmer

32.
But the whim we have of happiness is somewhat thus. By certain valuations, and averages, of our own striking, we come upon some sort of average terrestrial lot; this we fancy belongs to us by nature, and of indefeasible rights. It is simple payment of our wages, of our deserts; requires neither thanks nor complaint. Foolish soul! What act of legislature was there that thou shouldst be happy? A little while ago thou hadst no right to be at all.
Carlyle, Thomas

33.
If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.
Epicurus

34.
Objects we ardently pursue bring little happiness when gained; most of our pleasures come from unexpected sources.
Spencer, Herbert

35.
Happiness is a by product of an effort to make someone else happy.
Palmer, Gretta Brooker

36.
The man who is born with a talent which he was meant to use finds his greatest happiness in using it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

37.
If you want to be happy for a year, plant a garden; If you want to be happy for life, plant a tree.
Proverb, English

38.
You traverse the world in search of happiness, which is within the reach of every man. A contented mind confers it on all.
Horace

39.
It is kind of happiness to know to what extent we may be unhappy.

40.
The only happiness a brave person ever troubles themselves in asking about, is happiness enough to get their work done.
Carlyle, Thomas

41.
Happiness grows at our own firesides, and is not to be picked in stranger's gardens.
Jerrold, Douglas William

42.
A man is happy so long as he chooses to be happy and nothing can stop him.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander

43.
Happiness is the light on the water. The water is cold and dark and deep.
Maxwell, William

44.
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

45.
The really happy man never laughs -- seldom -- though he may smile. He does not need to laugh, for laughter, like weeping is a relief of mental tension -- and the happy are not over strung.
Aveling, Prof. F. A. P.

46.
Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like the violin.
Lubbock, Sir John

Hubbard, Elbert

48.
Happiness is a sunbeam which may pass through a thousand bosoms without losing a particle of its original ray; nay, when it strikes on a kindred heart, like the converged light on a mirror, it reflects itself with redoubled brightness. It is not perfected till it is shared.
Porter, Jane

49.
Where there is joy there is creation. Where there is no joy there is no creation: know the nature of joy.
Upanishads, Veda

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
