The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase; if you pursue happiness you'll never find it.
C. P. Snow

Rubin, Theodore I.

20.
Happiness is a wine of the rarest vintage, and seems insipid to a vulgar taste.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

Waitley, Denis

The most exciting happiness is the happiness generated by forces beyond your control.
Nash, Ogden

23.
The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet.
James Oppenheim

Peale, Norman Vincent

25.
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.

26.
The mintage of wisdom is to know that rest is rust, and that real life is love, laughter, and work.
Hubbard, Elbert

Robertson Davies

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.
When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.
Nicole Kidman

33.
Happiness is good for the body but sorrow strengthens the spirit.

34.
It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.

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

36.
At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities.
