Happiness Quotes
-
I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.
Audrey Hepburn
-
Happiness arises as a result of different causes and conditions. If you harm someone out of anger, you may feel some superficial satisfaction, but deep down you know it was wrong. Your confidence will be undermined. However, if you have an altruistic attitude, you’ll feel comfortable and confident in the presence of others.
Dalai Lama

The highest happiness, the purest joys of life, wear out at last.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Albert Camus

Hermann Hesse

All suffering comes from cherishing ourselves. All happiness comes from cherishing others.
Bo Lozoff

Perfect understanding between beings is no guarantor of happiness. To perfectly understand another's madness, for instance, is to be mad oneself. The veil that separates earthly beings is, at times, a tragic barrier, but it is also, at times, a great kindness.
Andre Alexis
-
Misfortune, no less than happiness, inspires us to dream.
Honore de Balzac

Delusion gives you more happiness than truth gives to me. For injuries ought to be done all at one time, so that, being tasted less, they offend less; benefits ought to be given little by little, so that the flavour of them may last longer.
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli
-
Happiness is an equivalent for all troublesome things.
Epictetus
-
Rely on no one. Depend on no one for your happiness. I am declaring my independence. I am establishing a republic unto myself. I am seceding from the human race.
Eric Gamalinda
