Quotations
Happiness
We know, how to build a beautiful house, but we don’t know how to live within it happily.
-J. Krishnamurti
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
But the happiest people are the ones who understand that good things occur when one allows them to.
-Danny Wallace

Happiness is spiritual, born of truth and love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it.
-Mary Baker Eddy
For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

If you can have everything at fifty that you wanted when you were fifteen, you're happy.
-Alfred Bester

Happiness is only real when shared.
