In the end, the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of even greater importance.
-Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Quotations
Happiness
We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.
-Khalil Gibran
What is the definition of joy? When you get an opportunity to do what you really
want to, the feeling that you experience then, is called "Joy".
-Deep Trivedi
It's like Tolstoy said. Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
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"
That happiness which comes after misery is all the more enjoyable; it is to one scorched in the sun that the shade of the tree gives exceptional relief.
-Kalidas "Kalidas"
I have wanted only one thing to make me happy. That thing is everything.
-Sebastian Horsley
Happiness is a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
-Gerard Way
It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.
-Dale Carnegie
