To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Happiness
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
"The History Boys"
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
You cannot be with someone just because you don’t want to hurt him. You have your own happiness to think about.
-Melisa De La Cruz
"The Van Alen Legacy"
Don't put off happiness you can have today. Tomorrow is a hope, not a promise.
-Debra Anastasia
Happiness is a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hiding how you really feel and trying to make everyone happy doesn't make you nice, it just makes you a liar.
-Jenny O'connell
"The Book of Luke"
The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satisfaction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary, because there's nothing to make it last.
-Nicholas Sparks
"Dear John"
Yesterday I was sad, today I am happy! Yesterday I had a problem; today I still have the same problem! But today I changed the way I look at it!
-C. Joy Bell C.
