Par toi tout le bonheur que m'offre l'avenir Est dans mon souvenir. Through you, all the happiness that the future offers Is in my memory. ~ Marceline Desbordes-Valmore
Bonheur quotes by Marceline Desbordes-Valmore
But the suit I wear is my work attire, and nothing else. ~ Rosa Bonheur
Bonheur quotes by Rosa Bonheur
We may be happy but just don't know it yet. Many want to rebuke themselves for not finding the threshold of well being, since they simply haven't learnt to be nice to themselves and to enjoy the privileged twinklings of life. ("C'est quand le bonheur ?" ) ~ Erik Pevernagie
Bonheur quotes by Erik Pevernagie
In America, we are entitled to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

There is no such expression in France. In fact, in France, the equivalent expression is la recherche du bonheur (looking for happiness). On the surface, this might seem as if I am splitting hairs, but if you really examine the idea of "looking" for happiness as opposed to "pursuing" happiness, you'll see there's actually a big difference.

If we're looking for something, it feels as if it's there hiding in plain sight. And all we have to do is be patient and when the room is quiet, quickly lift up the tablecloth and voilà! There it is! Happiness!

On the other hand, pursuing implies a kind of chasing after something.

"Looking for happiness" seems gentler. There is happiness and we just need to look. ~ Jamie Cat Callan
Bonheur quotes by Jamie Cat Callan
Apre' s le rare bonheur de trouver une compagne qui nous soit bien assortie, l'e tat le moins malheureux de la vie est sans doute de vivre seul. After the rare happiness of finding a companion with whom we are well matched, the least unpleasant state of life is without doubt to live alone. ~ Jacques-Henri Bernardin De Saint-Pierre
Bonheur quotes by Jacques-Henri Bernardin De Saint-Pierre
And actually, the word "happiness" translates as bonheur in French, which literally means "a good hour" or "good time". It's something you experience. ~ Jamie Cat Callan
Bonheur quotes by Jamie Cat Callan
The epithets of imbeciles have never bothered me. ~ Rosa Bonheur
Bonheur quotes by Rosa Bonheur
To his doctrines I owe my great and glorious ambition for the sex to which I proudly belong and whose independence I shall defend until my dying day. ~ Rosa Bonheur
Bonheur quotes by Rosa Bonheur
Art is a tyrant. It demands heart, brain, soul, body. The entireness of the votary. Nothing less will win its highest favor. I wed art. It is my husband, my world, my life dream, the air I breathe. I know nothing else, feel nothing else, think nothing else. ~ Rosa Bonheur
Bonheur quotes by Rosa Bonheur
The echo of happiness bounces against a wall. (L'écho du bonheur - S'entend contre un mur.) ~ Charles De Leusse
Bonheur quotes by Charles De Leusse
Ah! If nations could only agree to employ their resources to perfect agriculture and improve transportation, and to bring all their girl children a good education, what an explosion of happiness there would be on earth! ~ Rosa Bonheur
Bonheur quotes by Rosa Bonheur
Happiness is not a sin, so let's spread our wings and prepare to be lucky. ("C'est quand le bonheur ?") ~ Erik Pevernagie
Bonheur quotes by Erik Pevernagie
Je pensais de meme que notre jeunesse etait finie et le bonheur manqué.

I thought too that our youth was over and we had failed to find happiness. ~ Alain-Fournier
Bonheur quotes by Alain-Fournier
And now, as George pours the vodka (giving her a light one, to slow her down) and the scotch (giving himself a heavier one, to catch up on) he begins to feel this utterly mysterious unsensational thing - not bliss, not ecstasy, not joy - just plain happiness - das Glueck, le bonheur, la felicidad - they have given it all three genders but one has to admit, however grudgingly, that the Spanish are right, it is usually feminine, that's to say, woman-created. ~ Christopher Isherwood
