Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
Sometimes it's hard to avoid the happiness of others.
David Assael

2.
We all want to be happy, and we're all going to die. You might say those are the only two unchallengeably true facts that apply to every human being on this planet.
Boyd, William

3.
A great obstacle to happiness is to expect too much happiness.
Fontenelle, Bernard Le Bovier

4.
Do not weep; do not wax indignant. Understand.
Baruch Spinoza

5.
Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
Santayana, George

6.
Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.
George Burns

7.
No thoroughly occupied man was ever yet very miserable.
Landon, Letitia Elizabeth

8.
The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.
Schweitzer, Albert

9.
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

10.
The really happy person is the one who can enjoy the scenery, even when they have to take a detour.
Jeans, Sir James

11.
The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
Hoffer, Eric

12.
Happiness is not a horse, you cannot harness it.
Proverb, Russian

13.
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

14.
Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.
Proverb, Scottish

15.
To be happy in this world, especially when youth is past, it is necessary to feel oneself not merely an isolated individual whose day will soon be over, but part of the stream of life slowing on from the first germ to the remote and unknown future.
Russell, Bertrand

16.
It is the paradox of life that the way to miss pleasure is to seek it first. The very first condition of lasting happiness is that a life should be full of purpose, aiming at something outside self.
Black, Hugo

17.
No man is happy who does not think himself so.
Publilius Syrus

18.
The happy think a lifetime short, but to the unhappy one night can be an eternity.
Lucian

19.
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

20.
What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?
Smith, Adam

21.
There is no happiness; there are only moments of happiness.
Proverb, Spanish

22.
Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
Keyes Jr., Ken

23.
Happiness does not lie in happiness, but in the achievement of it.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor

24.
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

25.
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

26.
Holiness, not happiness, is the chief end of man.
Chambers, Oswald

27.
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

28.
But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a person and life they lead.
Camus, Albert

29.
The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.
Alfred Lord Tennyson

30.
A person is never happy till their vague strivings has itself marked out its proper limitations.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

31.
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

32.
Happiness is a by product of an effort to make someone else happy.
Palmer, Gretta Brooker

33.
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

34.
Happiness is a hard thing because it is achieved only by making others happy.
Cloete, Stuart

35.
We take greater pains to persuade others we are happy than in trying to think so ourselves.
Confucius

36.
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
Eddie Cantor

37.
Talk happiness. The world is sad enough without your woe.
Marden, Orison Swett

42.
We find greatest joy, not in getting, but in expressing what we are. Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their gladness is not the taking and holding, but in doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it; fun to have things but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself.
Baughan, R.J.

43.
Happiness is the longing for repetition.
Kundera, Milan

Happiness must be cultivated. It is like character. It is not a thing to be safely let alone for a moment, or it will run to weeds.
Phelps, Elizabeth Stuart

45.
There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.
Dyer, Wayne

46.
Be open to your happiness and sadness as they arise.
Thomas, John M.

47.
Man is the artificer of his own happiness.
Henry David Thoreau

48.
Most of us experience happiness when we are enjoying life and feeling free, enjoying the process and products of our creative and intellectual processes, enjoying the ecstasy of transcendent oneness with the universe.
Muriel, James

49.
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

50.
Happiness is a sort of action.
Aristotle
