We have everything we need to be happy, but we aren't happy. Something's missing.
-Ray Bradbury
We have everything we need to be happy, but we aren't happy. Something's missing.

"Meditations"
Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
-Robert Frost
Happiness is like those palaces in fairytales whose gates are guarded by dragons: We must fight in order to conquer it.
-Alexandre Dumas
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
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.
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"
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it.
-Jacques Prévert
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
-William Saroyan
"My Heart's in the Highlands"
Doing good to others is not a duty. It is a joy, for it increases your own health and happiness.
