Quotations
Happiness
Let us live happily, we who have no impediments. We shall subsist on joy even as the radiant gods.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada"
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
Happy are those who mourn; God will comfort them.
-Jesus Christ
One must believe in the possibility of happiness in order to be happy, and I now believe in it. Let the dead bury the dead, but while I'm alive, I must live and be happy.
-Leo Tolstoy
"War and Peace"
But the happiest people are the ones who understand that good things occur when one allows them to.
-Danny Wallace

-Audrey Niffenegger
"The Time Traveler's Wife"
Not what we have but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance.
