"Delirium"
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"
The difference between love and happiness is that those who talk about love tend to be in love, but those who talk about happiness tend to be not happy.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it.
-Jacques Prévert
Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.
-Guillaume Apollinaire
Human intelligence lies in making such choices that whatever he desires or
attains out of them...the end result should only be happiness.
-Deep Trivedi
Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.
-J. M. Barrie
With a genuine keenness or readiness to serve others, one can attain happiness in any group or community, and the eagerness to serve others will endow you with the power and skill necessary for the required service. Nowadays, we tend to regard it as derogatory to serve, but there is great worth in service.
Hiding how you really feel and trying to make everyone happy doesn't make you nice, it just makes you a liar.
-Jenny O'connell
