Happiness Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
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

2.
Most people ask for happiness on condition. Happiness can only be felt if you don't set any condition.
Rubinstein, Arthur

3.
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us least live so as to deserve it.
Immanuel Hermann Fichte

4.
The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a life time.

5.
The secret of happiness is something to do.
Burroughs, John

6.
Sir, that all who are happy, are equally happy, is not true. A peasant and a philosopher may be equally satisfied, but not equally happy. Happiness consists in the multiplicity of agreeable consciousness.
Johnson, Samuel

7.
The attitude of unhappiness is not only painful, it is mean and ugly. What can be more base and unworthy than the pining, puling, mumping mood, no matter by what outward ills it may have been engendered? What is more injurious to others? What less helpful as a way out of the difficulty? It but fastens and perpetuates the trouble which occasioned it, and increases the total evil of the situation. At all costs, then, we ought to reduce the sway of that mood; we ought to scout it in ourselves and others, and never show it tolerance.
James, William

8.
Happiness consists in activity -- it is a running stream, not a stagnant pool.
Mason, John L.

9.
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.
Hazlitt, William

10.
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.

11.
A good way I know to find happiness, is to not bore a hole to fit the plug.
Billings, Josh

12.
The thing that counts most in the pursuit of happiness is choosing the right companion.

13.
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us so live as to deserve happiness.
Fichte, Johann G.

14.
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

15.
Very little is needed to make a happy life.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

16.
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

17.
There is something ridiculous and even quite indecent in an individual claiming to be happy. Still more a people or a nation making such a claim. The pursuit of happiness... is without any question the most fatuous which could possibly be undertaken. This lamentable phrase the pursuit of happiness is responsible for a good part of the ills and miseries of the modern world.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

18.
Let no one till his death be called unhappy. Measure not the work until the day's out and the labor done.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

19.
The man who is born with a talent which he was meant to use finds his greatest happiness in using it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

20.
Life at its noblest leaves mere happiness far behind; and indeed cannot endure it. Happiness is not the object of life: life has no object: it is an end in itself; and courage consists in the readiness to sacrifice happiness for an intenser quality of life.
Shaw, George Bernard

21.
The happy think a lifetime short, but to the unhappy one night can be an eternity.
Lucian

22.
He felt the loyalty we feel to unhappiness -- the sense that is where we really belong.
Greene, Graham

23.
Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don't even remember leaving open.
Lane, Rose Wilder

24.
Personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a checklist of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications are not your life.
J.K. Rowling

25.
Happiness is never stopping to think if you are.
Sondreal, Palmer

26.
Enjoy your happiness while you have it, and while, you have it do not too closely scrutinize its foundation.
Farrall, Joseph

27.
Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response.
Barthel, Mildred

28.
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

29.
Happiness does not come from doing easy work but from the afterglow of satisfaction that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demanded our best.
Rubin, Theodore I.

30.
The really happy person is the one who can enjoy the scenery, even when they have to take a detour.
Jeans, Sir James

31.
Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.
Jefferson, Thomas

32.
Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meandering, but leads none of us by the same route
Colton, Charles Caleb

33.
We are happy when for everything inside us there is a corresponding something outside us.
Yeats, William Butler

34.
Happiness is a wine of the rarest vintage, and seems insipid to a vulgar taste.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

35.
Remember that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.
Goodman, Roy

36.
True happiness arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of one's self, and in the next, from the friendship and conversation of a few select companions.
Addison, Joseph

37.
It is kind of happiness to know to what extent we may be unhappy.

38.
We wish to be happier than other people; and this is difficult, for we believe others to be happier than they are.
Montesquieu, Charles De

39.
Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.
Rohn, Jim

40.
Happiness is not a state to arrive at, rather, a manner of traveling.
Johnson, Samuel

41.
This is the best kind of voyeurism, hearing joy from your neighbors.
Chuck Sigars

42.
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.
Aurelius, Marcus

43.
Happiness is not pleasure, it is victory.
Ziglar, Zig

44.
Nothing is miserable unless you think it so; and on the other hand, nothing brings happiness unless you are content with it.
Jonathan Haidt

45.
Such happiness as life is capable of comes from the full participation of all our powers in the endeavor to wrest from each changing situations of experience its own full and unique meaning.
Dewey, John

46.
Happiness requires problems
Hollingworth, H. L.

47.
It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.
Kin Hubbard

48.
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

49.
If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.
Epicurus

50.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.
Wilde, Oscar
