Motivational Quotes
Happiness
Happiness is perfume, you can't pour it on somebody else without getting a few drops on yourself

Best Quotes about Happiness
False happiness renders men stern and proud, and that happiness is never communicated. True happiness renders them kind and sensible, and that happiness is always shared.
Montesquieu, Charles De
The thing that counts most in the pursuit of happiness is choosing the right companion.
Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember.
Oscar Levant
No man is happy who does not think himself so.
Publilius Syrus
Nothing is funnier than unhappiness, I grant you that. Yes, yes, it's the most comical thing in the world.
Beckett, Samuel
To be happy we must not be too concerned with others.
Camus, Albert
Happiness is not a reward -- it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment -- it is a result.
Ingersoll, Robert Green
What happiness is there which is not purchased with more or less of pain?
Oliphant, Margaret
Happiness is a positive cash flow.
Adler, Fred
Happiness was not made to be boasted, but enjoyed. Therefore tho others count me miserable, I will not believe them if I know and feel myself to be happy; nor fear them.
Traherne, Thomas
True happiness is the full use of your powers along lines of excellence in a life affording scope.
Kennedy, John F.
At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities.
Jean Houston
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
Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells in the soul.
Democritus
Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that but simply growth, We are happy when we are growing.
Yeats, William Butler
Happiness is a sort of action.
Aristotle
Whoever does not regard what he has as most ample wealth, is unhappy, though he be master of the world.
Epictetus
Remember that it is nothing to do your duty, that is demanded of you and is no more meritorious than to wash your hands when they are dirty; the only thing that counts is the love of duty; when love and duty are one, then grace is in you and you will enjoy a happiness which passes all understanding.
W. Somerset Maugham
When what we are is what we want to be, that's happiness.
Forbes, Malcolm S.
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.
The happier the moment the shorter.
Pliny The Elder
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.
The creed of a true saint is to make the best of life, and to make the most of it.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel
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
Happiness: a good bank account, a good cook and a good digestion.
Jean Jacques Rousseau
No burden is so heavy for a man to bear as a succession of happy days.
Muller, Max
I can sympathize with people's pains, but not with their pleasures. There is something curiously boring about somebody else's happiness.
Huxley, Aldous
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.
Barrie, Sir James M.
Happiness is a matter of one's most ordinary everyday mode of consciousness being busy and lively and unconcerned with self. To be damned is for one's ordinary everyday mode of consciousness to be unremitting agonizing preoccupation with self.
Murdoch, Iris
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
Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
Dumas, Alexandre
All sanity depends on this: that it should be a delight to feel heat strike the skin, a delight to stand upright, knowing the bones are moving easily under the flesh.
Doris Lessing
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
Work and live to serve others, to leave the world a little better than you found it and garner for yourself as much peace of mind as you can. This is happiness.
Sarnoff, David
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
Happy is the son whose faith in his mother remains unchallenged.
Alcott, Louisa May
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
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
It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.
Kin Hubbard
Happiness arises in a state of peace, not of tumult.
Ann Radcliffe
Happiness is not best achieved by those who seek it directly.
Russell, Bertrand
Happiness... she loves, to see men at work. She loves sweat, weariness, self sacrifice. She will be found not in places but lurking in cornfields and factories; and hovering over littered desks; she crowns the unconscious head of the busy child.
Grayson, David
It isn't necessary to be rich and famous to be happy. It's only necessary to be rich.
Alda, Alan
Happiness is the longing for repetition.
Kundera, Milan
Holiness, not happiness, is the chief end of man.
Chambers, Oswald
Happiness and virtue rest upon each other; the best are not only the happiest, but the happiest are usually the best.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
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
Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
Storm Jameson
Happiness is an imaginary condition, formerly attributed by the living to the dead, now usually attributed by adults to children, and by children to adults.
Thomas Szasz
The Greeks said grandly in their tragic phrase, Let no one be called happy till his death; to which I would add, Let no one, till his death be called unhappy.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
