Quotations
Happiness
I have wanted only one thing to make me happy. That thing is everything.
-Sebastian Horsley
A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth.
-George Bernard Shaw
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"
For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
It might be that to surrender to happiness was to accept defeat, but it was a defeat better than many victories.
-W. Somerset Maugham

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
-Steven Kloves
"The movie, “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban"
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it.

To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with Spring.

That happiness which comes after misery is all the more enjoyable; it is to one scorched in the sun that the shade of the tree gives exceptional relief.
