No one should ever ask themselves that: why am I unhappy? The question carries within it the virus that will destroy everything. If we ask that question, it means we want to find out what makes us happy. If what makes us happy is different from what we have now, then we must either change once and for all or stay as we are, feeling even more unhappy.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Zahir"
Quotations
Happiness
There is no limit to joy. Happiness has no end. When you are standing in love of God, every cell in your body jumps for joy. You breathe in and out with the entire universe. In this state, your life is fulfilled.

I think happiness is what makes you pretty. Period. Happy people are beautiful. They become like a mirror and they reflect that happiness.

Happiness is like those palaces in fairytales whose gates are guarded by dragons: We must fight in order to conquer it.

"The Book of Luke"
If your joy is derived from what society thinks of you, you're always going to be disappointed.

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
Being happy is a great science. If you are not happy, do not be confused. Happiness is hard to achieve.
