- Rubin, Theodore I.

Best Quotes about Happiness

Happiness is the act of being tough with ourselves and tender with others.

2.
Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.
Richter, Jean Paul

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

In theory there is a possibility of perfect happiness: To believe in the indestructible element within one, and not to strive towards it.
Kafka, Franz

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.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

6.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.
Wilde, Oscar

Horace

Russell, Bertrand

15.
I can sympathize with people's pains, but not with their pleasures. There is something curiously boring about somebody else's happiness.
Huxley, Aldous

16.
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

17.
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

18.
Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.
George Burns

19.
When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him; and you are torn by the thought of the unhappiness and night you cast, by the mere fact of living, in the hearts you encounter.
Camus, Albert

20.
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

21.
Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.
Millman, Dan

22.
I'm fulfilled in what I do... I never thought that a lot of money or fine clothes -- the finer things of life -- would make you happy. My concept of happiness is to be filled in a spiritual sense.
King, Coretta Scott

23.
Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
Robert Frost

24.
To have joy one must share it. Happiness was born a twin.
Byron, Lord

25.
Happiness is a how, not a what: a talent, not an object
Hesse, Hermann

Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
Keyes Jr., Ken

Erikson, Erik H.
