Quotations
Happiness
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"
You must never forget that greatness does not guarantee happiness but goodness always does.
-Sri Chinmoy
Don't put off happiness you can have today. Tomorrow is a hope, not a promise.
-Debra Anastasia
Happiness comes from the soul’s satisfaction, not from the vital’s or body’s satisfaction.

We know, how to build a beautiful house, but we don’t know how to live within it happily.

Above all, let us never forget that an act of goodness is in itself an act of happiness. It is the flower of a long inner life of joy and contentment; it tells of peaceful hours and days on the sunniest heights of our soul.
-Maurice Maeterlinck "Maurice Maeterlinck"
I'm not happy but I'm not unhappy about it.
-Alan Bennett
