False Happiness Quotes

Happiness must preclude false indulgence and physic Picture Quote #1

True happiness consists in eliminating the false idea of ‘I’ Picture Quote #1

What we really need to avoid is this epidemic of false positivism and false happiness, which says if it hurts, it must be bad. Sometimes it hurts because you have a conscience Picture Quote #1

Everyone has noticed how hard it is to turn our thoughts to God when everything is going well with us... While what we call ‘our own life’ remains agreeable, we will not surrender it to Him. What, then, can God do in our interests but make ‘our own life’ less agreeable to us, and take away the plausible sources of false happiness? Picture Quote #1

False pleasures come from without and are imperfect: happiness is internal and our own Picture Quote #1

Knowledge is happiness, because to have knowledge - broad, deep knowledge - is to know true ends from false, and lofty things from low Picture Quote #1

Deceit is the false road to happiness; and all the joys we travel through to vice, like fairy banquets, vanish when we touch them Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

False happiness is like false money; it passes for a time as well as the true, and serves some ordinary occasions; but when it is brought to the touch, we find the lightness and alloy, and feel the loss Picture Quote #1

Culture is a perversion. It fetishizes objects, creates consumer mania, it preaches endless forms of false happiness, endless forms of false understanding in the form of squirrelly religions and silly cults. It invites people to diminish themselves and dehumanize themselves by behaving like machines Picture Quote #1
