Motivational Quotes
Happiness
The journey to happiness involves finding the courage to go down into ourselves and take responsibility for what's there: all of it.

Best Quotes about Happiness
Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible.
Proust, Marcel
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
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
Never believe straight off in a man's unhappiness. Ask him if he can still sleep. If the answer's yes, all's well. That is enough.
Celine, Louis-Ferdinand
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
After what we can say you can be sure the happy heart will make the happy day.
Happiness does not lie in happiness, but in the achievement of it.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor
It is kind of happiness to know to what extent we may be unhappy.
Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
Storm Jameson
What happiness is there which is not purchased with more or less of pain?
Oliphant, Margaret
While we pursue happiness, we flee from contentment.
Proverb, Hasidic
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
There are seeds of self-destruction in all of us that will bear only unhappiness if allowed to grow.
Brande, Dorothea
He felt the loyalty we feel to unhappiness -- the sense that is where we really belong.
Greene, Graham
Those who seek happiness miss it, and those who discuss it, lack it.
Jackson, Holbrook
Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.
Nicole Kidman
Happiness is a positive cash flow.
Adler, Fred
Happiness requires problems
Hollingworth, H. L.
It is wrong to assume that men of immense wealth are always happy.
Rockefeller, John D.
There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.
Dyer, Wayne
If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.
Epicurus
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
When we recall the past, we usually find that it is the simplest things -- not the great occasions -- that in retrospect give off the greatest glow of happiness.
Hope, Bob
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
No burden is so heavy for a man to bear as a succession of happy days.
Muller, Max
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
Saroyan, William
Do not weep; do not wax indignant. Understand.
Baruch Spinoza
I've grown to realize the joy that comes from little victories is preferable to the fun that comes from ease and the pursuit of pleasure.
Lawana Blackwell
It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and well and justly. And it is impossible to live wisely and well and justly without living a pleasant life.
Epicurus
This is the best kind of voyeurism, hearing joy from your neighbors.
Chuck Sigars
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.
Barrie, Sir James M.
Some of us might find happiness if we quit struggling so desperately for it.
Feather, William
Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product.
Roosevelt, Eleanor
The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.
Schweitzer, Albert
My happiness derives from knowing the people I love are happy.
Ketchel, Holly
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
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
Where one is wise two are happy.
Proverb
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
If you can't be happy where you are, it's a cinch you can't be happy where you ain't.
Jones, Charles ''Tremendous''
The most happy man is he who knows how to bring into relation the end and beginning of his life.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
To be happy we must not be too concerned with others.
Camus, Albert
If happiness is activity in accordance with excellence, it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence.
Aristotle
If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.
Maslow, Abraham H.
That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
Waitley, Denis
The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us least live so as to deserve it.
Immanuel Hermann Fichte
Happiness arises in a state of peace, not of tumult.
Ann Radcliffe
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
