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
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
-William Saroyan
"My Heart's in the Highlands"
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.
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"
No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.
-Helen Keller
It might be that to surrender to happiness was to accept defeat, but it was a defeat better than many victories.
-W. Somerset Maugham
"Of Human Bondage"
The only satisfactory definition of happiness is wholeness.
-Helen Keller
Celebrate the happiness that friends are always giving, make every day a holiday and celebrate just living!
