Happiness Quotes

There is happiness in the love of labor, there is misery in the love of gain Picture Quote #1

Happiness is your choice to make. How happy or how miserable do you want to be? Picture Quote #1

I’m beginning to think that you don’t find happiness from living your life looking ahead or back… that you find it when you look around Picture Quote #1

Civilized people have exchanged some part of their chances of happiness for a measure of security Picture Quote #1

There will be little rubs and disappointments everywhere, and we are all apt to expect too much; but then, if one scheme of happiness fails, human nature turns to another; if the first calculation is wrong, we make a second better: we find comfort somewhere Picture Quote #1

You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world’s happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime Picture Quote #1

Peace requires us to surrender our illusions of control. We can love and care for others but we cannot possess our children, lovers, family, or friends. We can assist them, pray for them, and wish them well, yet in the end their happiness and suffering depend on their thoughts and actions, not on our wishes Picture Quote #1

This is true happiness: to have no ambition and to work like a horse as if you had every ambition. To live far from men, not to need them and yet to love them. To have the stars above, the land to your left and the sea to your right and to realize of a sudden that in your heart, life has accomplished its final miracle: it has become a fairy tale Picture Quote #1

A kernel of truth lurks at the heart of religion, because spiritual experience, ethical behavior, and strong communities are essential for human happiness. And yet our religious traditions are intellectually defunct and politically ruinous. While spiritual experience is clearly a natural propensity of the human mind, we need not believe anything on insufficient evidence to actualize it Picture Quote #1

This is what happiness is, past the rubbish of its overuse as a word, past the cracked gloss of the letters that mean nothing when strung together. They mean something now, and I know what it’s like when you and someone else are right together. How simple is is, and how amazing Picture Quote #1

I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed Picture Quote #1

Without our stories, we are not only able to act clearly and fearlessly, we are also a friend, a listener. We are people living happy lives. We are appreciation and gratitude that have become as natural as breath itself. Happiness is the natural state for someone who knows that there’s nothing to know and that we already have everything we need, right here now Picture Quote #1

The key to genuine happiness is in our hands. To think this way is to discover the essential values of kindness, brotherly love and altruism. The more clearly we see the benefits of these values, the more we will seek to reject anything that opposes them; in this way we will be able to bring about inner transformation Picture Quote #1

If your happiness depends on your children being happy, that makes them your hostages. So stay out of their business, stop using them for your happiness, and be your own happiness. And that way you are the teacher for your children: someone who knows how to live a happy life Picture Quote #1

Happiness is the choice I make today. It does not rest on my circumstances, but on my frame of mind... In cultivating the habits of happiness, I attract the people and situations that match its frequency. I smile more often, give praise more often, give thanks more often, and am glad more often. For such is my choice today Picture Quote #1

If indeed the qualities such as love, patience, tolerance, and forgiveness are what happiness consists in, and if it is also true that compassion, defined as concern for others, is both the source and the fruit of these qualities, then the more we are compassionate, the more we provide for our own happiness Picture Quote #1

Live life and take chances. Believe that everything happens for a reason and don’t regret. Love to the fullest and you will find true happiness in life. Realize that things go wrong and people change, but things do go on. Sometimes things weren’t meant to be. What is supposed to happen will work its way out Picture Quote #1

Happiness is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you Picture Quote #1

The secret to happiness in your work is to find a job in which your neurosis is constructive Picture Quote #1

Happiness is life served up with a scoop of acceptance, a topping of tolerance and sprinkles of hope, although chocolate sprinkles also work Picture Quote #1

Happiness is like the first blissful intoxication of morphine. It doesn’t last very long Picture Quote #1

Men possessing minds which are morose, solemn, and inflexible enjoy generally a greater share of dignity than of happiness Picture Quote #1

As we lose ourselves in the service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness Picture Quote #1

I learned a long time ago that fame and money is not a ticket to happiness Picture Quote #1

Money, or even power, can never yield happiness unless it be accompanied by the goodwill of others Picture Quote #1

Most rich countries have reported increases in happiness as they become richer Picture Quote #1

If freedom is a requisite for human happiness, then all that’s necessary is to provide the illusion of freedom Picture Quote #1

Even if you fulfill your hearts desire, by sacrificing something important, you may not necessarily be happy. Happiness doesn’t come in one form, it determined by your own heart Picture Quote #1

If you think of this world as a place simply intended for our happiness, you find it quite intolerable: think of it as a place for training and correction and it’s not so bad Picture Quote #1

The consumption society has made us feel that happiness lies in having things, and has failed to teach us the happiness of not having things Picture Quote #1
