-Alexandre Dumas
Quotations
Happiness
It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.

"How to Win Friends and Influence People"

-Khalil Gibran

-Kalidas "Kalidas"
The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.
-Benjamin Franklin
Happiness is spiritual, born of truth and love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it.
-Mary Baker Eddy
To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.

Happiness is like a cat. If you try to coax it or call it, it will avoid you. It will never come. But if you pay no attention to it and go about your business, you'll find it rubbing up against your legs and jumping into your lap.
-William J. Bennett
If your joy is derived from what society thinks of you, you're always going to be disappointed.
-Madonna
Let us live happily, we who have no impediments. We shall subsist on joy even as the radiant gods.
