Quotations
Happiness
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
-Albert Camus
Those with indomitable spirit are the real successes in life. If you can so train or condition your mind that you are content regardless of what you have or do not have, and if you can stand the challenge of all your trials and remain calm, that is true happiness.
-A Spiritual Leader "Paramahansa Yogananda"
They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.
-Tom Bodett
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
-Deep Trivedi
The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
-Eric Hoffer
The secret to happiness is to face the fact that the world is horrible.
-Bertrand Russell
Unhappiness is bondage; therefore, happiness is freedom.
-Lauren Oliver
"Delirium"
Happiness is spiritual, born of truth and love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it.
