Best Quotes about Happiness
Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier.
Young, Margaret
Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
Santayana, George
Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product.
Roosevelt, Eleanor
The best advice on the art of being happy is about as easy to follow as advice to be well when one is sick.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy
Kant, Immanuel
Happiness doesn't come from doing what we like to do but from liking what we have to do.
Peterson, Wilferd A.
Remember, happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have, it depends solely upon what you think.
Carnegie, Dale
The happier the moment the shorter.
Pliny The Elder
True happiness is the full use of your powers along lines of excellence in a life affording scope.
Kennedy, John F.
Let no man be called happy before his death. Till then, he is not happy, only lucky.
Solon
There's a hope for every woe, and a balm for every pain, but the first joys of our heart come never back again!
Gilfillan, Robert
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
If you optimize everything, you will always be unhappy.
Knuth, Don
To have joy one must share it. Happiness was born a twin.
Byron, Lord
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
Shall I give you my recipe for happiness? I find everything useful and nothing indispensable. I find everything wonderful and nothing miraculous. I reverence the body. I avoid first causes like the plague.
Douglas, Norman
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
It seldom happens that any felicity comes so pure as not to be tempered and allayed by some mixture of sorrow.
Cervantes, Miguel De
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.
We take greater pains to persuade others we are happy than in trying to think so ourselves.
Confucius
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
The secret of happiness is this: let your interests be as wide as possible, and let your reactions to the things and persons that interest you be as far as possible friendly rather than hostile.
Russell, Bertrand
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
You traverse the world in search of happiness, which is within the reach of every man. A contented mind confers it on all.
Horace
What makes people happy is activity; changing evil itself into good by power, working in a God like manner.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.
Nicole Kidman
The really happy person is the one who can enjoy the scenery, even when they have to take a detour.
Jeans, Sir James
The human spirit needs to accomplish, to achieve, to triumph to be happy.
Stein, Ben
Where one is wise two are happy.
Proverb
Happiness lies first of all in health.
Curtis, George William
Happiness lies in being privileged to work hard for long hours in doing whatever you think is worth doing. One man may find happiness in supporting a wife and children. Another may find it in robbing banks. Still another may labor mightily for years in pursuing pure research with no discernible result. Note the individual and subjective nature of each case. No two are alike and there is no reason to expect them to be. Each man or woman must find for himself or herself that occupation in which hard work and long hours make him or her happy. Contrariwise, if you are looking for shorter hours and longer vacations and early retirement, you are in the wrong job. Perhaps you need to take up bank robbing. Or geeking in a sideshow. Or even politics.
Heinlein, Robert
Happiness is not pleasure, it is victory.
Ziglar, Zig
Happiness is a positive cash flow.
Adler, Fred
Human happiness seems to consist in three ingredients; action, pleasure and indolence. And though these ingredients ought to be mixed in different proportions, according to the disposition of the person, yet no one ingredient can be entirely wanting without destroying in some measure the relish of the whole composition. composition.
Hume, David
The secret of happiness is to make others believe they are the cause of it.
Al Batt
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
Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that but simply growth, We are happy when we are growing.
Yeats, William Butler
Sometimes it's hard to avoid the happiness of others.
David Assael
If you want happiness for an hour -- take a nap. If you want happiness for a day -- go fishing. If you want happiness for a month -- get married. If you want happiness for a year -- inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime -- help someone else.
Proverb, Chinese
I cannot believe that the inscrutable universe turns on an axis of suffering; surely the strange beauty of the world must somewhere rest on pure joy!
Louise Bogan
Happiness adds and multiplies, as we divide it with others.
Nielsen, A.
Whoever is happy will make others happy too.
Frank, Anne
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Mahatma Gandhi
Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.
Schachtel, Rabbi H.
To describe happiness is to diminish it.
Stendhal, Henri B.
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
Happiness is the light on the water. The water is cold and dark and deep.
Maxwell, William
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
Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.
Millman, Dan
Happiness is like manna; it is to be gathered in grains, and enjoyed every day. It will not keep; it cannot be accumulated; nor have we got to go out of ourselves or into remote places to gather it, since it has rained down from a Heaven, at our very door
Edwards, Tryon
