Man only likes to count his troubles, but does not count his joys.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Happiness belongs to those who are contented.
A happy life consists of tranquility of mind.
Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.
One is never as unhappy as one thinks, nor as happy as one hopes.
Happiness is different from pleasure. Happiness has something to do with struggling and enduring and accomplishing.
- George Sheehan
In misery, you can start wanting to laugh. In laughter, the rictus made by the face is like crying. They have the same magic – you can’t separate them - Dennis Potter
Happiness depends on what you can give, not what you can get - Mahatma Gandhi
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony - Mahatma Gandhi
That action is best which procures the greatest happiness for the greatest numbers - Francis Huchinson
Happiness lies, first of all, in health - George William Curts
How wide the limits stand
Between a splendid and a happy land - Goldsmith
The best secret of happiness is renunciation - Andrew Carneige
The happy only are the truly great - Young
Now the heart is o full that a drop overfills it
We are happy now because God will it - J.R Lowell
Happiness belongs to the self-sufficient - Aristotle
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections
If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.
