Happiness Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
Storm Jameson

2.
Whoever is happy will make others happy too.
Frank, Anne

3.
All you need for happiness is a good gun, a good horse, and a good wife.
Boone, Daniel

4.
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

5.
Happiness comes from... some curious adjustment to life.
Walpole, Sir Hugh

6.
There is no greater joy than that of feeling oneself a creator. The triumph of life is expressed by creation.
Bergson, Henri L.

7.
All I can say about life is, Oh God, enjoy it!
Bob Newhart

8.
Happiness grows at our own firesides, and is not to be picked in stranger's gardens.
Jerrold, Douglas William

9.
Happy are those who dream dreams and are willing to pay the price to make them come true.

10.
To have joy one must share it. Happiness was born a twin.
Byron, Lord

11.
What makes people happy is activity; changing evil itself into good by power, working in a God like manner.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

12.
If you ever find happiness by hunting for it, you will find it as the old woman did her lost spectacles. Safe on her own nose all the time.
Billings, Josh

13.
Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.
Rohn, Jim

14.
The world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be super added.
Johnson, Samuel

15.
If you optimize everything, you will always be unhappy.
Knuth, Don

16.
No man is happy who does not think himself so.
Publilius Syrus

17.
The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.
Schweitzer, Albert

18.
Like swimming, riding, writing, or playing golf, happiness can be learned.
Sokoloff, Boris

19.
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
Jung, Carl

20.
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

21.
Happiness is not a reward -- it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment -- it is a result.
Ingersoll, Robert Green

22.
Remember that very little is needed to make a happy life.
Aurelius, Marcus

23.
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us least live so as to deserve it.
Immanuel Hermann Fichte

24.
Not what you have, but what you see; Not what you see, but what you choose; Not what seems fair, but what is true; Not what you dream, but what you do; Not what you take, but what you give; Not as you pray, but as you live. These are the things that mar or bless The sum of human happiness.

25.
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

26.
Happiness... is not a destination: it is a manner of traveling. Happiness is not an end in itself. It is a by-product of working, playing, loving and living.
Ginott, Haim

27.
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

28.
True happiness is the full use of your powers along lines of excellence in a life affording scope.
Kennedy, John F.

29.
If frugality were established in the state, and if our expenses were laid out to meet needs rather than superfluities of life, there might be fewer wants, and even fewer pleasures, but infinitely more happiness.
Goldsmith, Oliver

30.
If you observe a really happy man you will find him building a boat, writing a symphony, educating his son, growing Double Dahlias in his garden.
Wolfe, W, Beran

31.
Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that but simply growth, We are happy when we are growing.
Yeats, William Butler

32.
I can sympathize with people's pains, but not with their pleasures. There is something curiously boring about somebody else's happiness.
Huxley, Aldous

33.
Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.
Proverb, Scottish

34.
Never believe straight off in a man's unhappiness. Ask him if he can still sleep. If the answer's yes, all's well. That is enough.
Celine, Louis-Ferdinand

35.
It is wrong to assume that men of immense wealth are always happy.
Rockefeller, John D.

36.
Be open to your happiness and sadness as they arise.
Thomas, John M.

37.
No thoroughly occupied man was ever yet very miserable.
Landon, Letitia Elizabeth

38.
We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.
Koenig, Frederick

39.
Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so.
Ingersoll, Robert Green

40.
To be happy is not the purpose of our being rather it is to deserve happiness.
Fichte, Johann G.

41.
There is no happiness; there are only moments of happiness.
Proverb, Spanish

42.
One feels inclined to say that the intention that man should be happy is not included in the plan of Creation.
Freud, Sigmund

43.
To be happy we must not be too concerned with others.
Camus, Albert

44.
Happiness is a by-product. You cannot pursue it by itself.
Levenson, Samuel

45.
We cannot be contented because we are happy, and we cannot be happy because we are contented.
Landor, Walter Savage

46.
That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
Waitley, Denis

47.
The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modeled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.
Hume, David

48.
The really happy person is the one who can enjoy the scenery, even when they have to take a detour.
Jeans, Sir James

49.
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

50.
Happiness is always a by-product. It is probably a matter of temperament, and for anything I know it may be glandular. But it is not something that can be demanded from life, and if you are not happy you had better stop worrying about it and see what treasures you can pluck from your own brand of unhappiness.
Robertson Davies
