I was stunned. The steppe seemed to burst into bloom, heaving a sigh and drawing aside the veil of darkness, and I saw two lovers in its vast expanse. They did not seem to notice me, it was as if I was not there. I was walking along and watching as they, oblivious to the world, swayed together in tune with the song. And I did not recognize them. It was the same old Daniyar in his shabby army shirt unbuttoned at the throat, but his eyes seemed to gleam in the gloom. it was my Jamilia clinging to him, yet so quiet and timid, with teardrops sparkling upon her eyelashes. They were newly born, uniquely happy people. Was this not true happiness? Was not Daniyar giving this inspired music utterly to her, was he not singing for her, singing about her? ~ Chingiz Aitmatov
True Happiness quotes by Chingiz Aitmatov
The psalmist saith more to the point about true happiness in this short Psalm than any one of the philosophers, or all of them put together; they did but beat the bush, God hath here put the bird into our hand. John Trapp, 1660 ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
True Happiness quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
There is a fine line between compassion and a victim mentality. Compassion though is a healing force and comes from a place of kindness towards yourself. Playing the victim is a toxic waste of time that not only repels other people, but also robs the victim of ever knowing true happiness. ~ Bronnie Ware
True Happiness quotes by Bronnie Ware
When we know we are delaying the consequences of truth, whether buried in our subconscious or ignored by our conscious thoughts, our denial continues to steal our potential for true happiness. ~ Elaina Marie
True Happiness quotes by Elaina Marie
True happiness can only be found when you stop worrying about yourself and try to look out for those around you.Helping people can give your life meaning and joy. Don't expect anything in return spread happiness and get peace, there is nothing more valuable than peace.. ~ AribaZafar
True Happiness quotes by AribaZafar
There is sadness and then there is happiness. Happiness does not normally make its prescence felt. You have to go deep and feel the true happiness inside your own heart. Happiness can be our solitude, our loneliness, or a few good friends. You must find your happiness and protect your happiness! ~ Avijeet Das
True Happiness quotes by Avijeet Das
When we spend money on others, for example, we feel more content than when we spend money on ourselves. This is a kind of well-being rooted in meaning, connection, and equanimity - called eudaimonia by the ancient Greeks and in modern times perhaps called "inner" or "true" happiness. ~ Daniel J. Siegel
True Happiness quotes by Daniel J. Siegel
As Tim followed me up the narrow stairwell, he playfully pinched my butt with every step, a pleasant (and painful
in a black-and-blue sort of way) reminder that all I had yearned for as a student twenty-five years before had come true, even if I hadn't taken the time to notice it until now: I was happy. At twenty years old, had I articulated what I thought I needed in life, I would have probably said a big house, a successful husband, and a great career. Yet all I really needed for true happiness was the homeless, unemployed bus driver right behind me, pinching my butt every step of the way. ~ Doreen Orion
True Happiness quotes by Doreen Orion
True happiness comes from having a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved by cultivating altruism, love and compassion, and by eliminating anger, selfishness and greed. ~ Dalai Lama
True Happiness quotes by Dalai Lama
Happiness is a constant work-in-progress, because solving problems is a constant work-in-progress - the solutions to today's problems will lay the foundation for tomorrow's problems, and so on. True happiness occurs only when you find the problems you enjoy having and enjoy solving. Sometimes ~ Mark Manson
True Happiness quotes by Mark Manson
Life Is Full Of Obstacles, But You Must Complete Them All To Find True Happiness ~ Terrin White
True Happiness quotes by Terrin White
Asceticism is an antidote to the poison of self-centeredness common in our culture, which teaches us that satisfying our own desires is the key to the good life. The ascetic knows that true happiness can be found only by living in harmony with the will of God, and ascetical practices train body and soul to put God above self. ~ Rob Dreher
True Happiness quotes by Rob Dreher
I used to hold a unitary view, in which I proposed that only experienced happiness matters, and that life satisfaction is a fallible estimate of true happiness. ~ Daniel Kahneman
True Happiness quotes by Daniel Kahneman
For her, true happiness means you, Warden. ~ Jay McLean
True Happiness quotes by Jay McLean
The Happiest people DO NOT necessarily have the BEST THINGS.
They simply APPRECIATE the things they have. ~ Warren Buffett
True Happiness quotes by Warren Buffett
He who possesses forgiveness is able to enjoy true happiness. ~ Debasish Mridha
True Happiness quotes by Debasish Mridha
True happiness for human beings is possible only to those who develop their godlike potentialities to the utmost. ~ Bertrand Russell
True Happiness quotes by Bertrand Russell
True happiness is always available to us, but first we have to create the environment for it to flourish. ~ Sakyong Mipham
True Happiness quotes by Sakyong Mipham
It is not the young man who should be considered fortunate but the old man who has lived well, because the young man in his prime wanders much by chance, vacillating in his beliefs, while the old man has docked in the harbor, having safeguarded his true happiness. ~ Epicurus
True Happiness quotes by Epicurus
There is a whole world of difference between those who look only for their own happiness in this world and those who know their true happiness lies in the will of God. ~ Elisabeth Elliot
True Happiness quotes by Elisabeth Elliot
One moment of true happiness was worth all the moments of pain. (Jessica) ~ Shannon A. Thompson
True Happiness quotes by Shannon A. Thompson
I thank my God for graciously granting me the opportunity of learning that death is the key which unlocks the door to our true happiness. ~ Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
True Happiness quotes by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The necessity of pursuing true happiness is the foundation of all liberty- Happiness, in its full extent, is the utmost pleasure we are capable of. ~ John Locke
True Happiness quotes by John Locke
The creed of a true saint is to make the best of life, and to make the most of it. ~ Edwin Hubbel Chapin
True Happiness quotes by Edwin Hubbel Chapin
You can give a great and wonderful Christmas if you remember the gifts God has given you and, as best you can, offer them to others as He would. That is the spirit of Christmas and of true happiness every day. ~ Henry B. Eyring
True Happiness quotes by Henry B. Eyring
I try to stress to my children that buying something never leads to true happiness. ~ Harlan Coben
True Happiness quotes by Harlan Coben
The only thing that holds true happiness is that moment when you're in it. Nothing can be controlled. ~ Eliza Doolittle
True Happiness quotes by Eliza Doolittle
Unnatural, unorthodox, amoral: those pretensions crumble when confronted by true happiness. You shouldn't give another the authority to draw a line defining the boundaries of acceptable joy. ~ Darrell Drake
True Happiness quotes by Darrell Drake
Only the shallowest person believes that they can attain true happiness by maximizing their wealth at any cost. In absence of morality, ethics, and a sustainable philosophy to guide us in an ethical search for happiness, we will always perceive life's random countervailing forces of adversity and unpleasantness as inflicting a great personal injustice upon us. Through application of a deeply embedded personal philosophy, we can push back against the negative implications of a life of suffering. We can use a philosophical stance to gain the perspective needed to say 'yes' to all of life, both its rosy path of ineffable joys and a blackened trail of tears. We must learn to accept life as it truly is and not waste precious time in wistfulness. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
True Happiness quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
It's not what is available or unavailable that determines your level of success and happiness; it's what you convince yourself is true. ~ Wayne Dyer
True Happiness quotes by Wayne Dyer
The joy of Being, which is the only true happiness, cannot come to you through any form, possession, achievement, person, or event - through anything that happens. That joy cannot come to you - ever. It emanates from the formless dimension within you, from consciousness itself and thus is one with who you are. ~ Eckhart Tolle
True Happiness quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Actively, we are motivated by the never-ending desires of the self. We are compelled to pursue whatever the self imagines will satisfy its desires. We are convinced that satisfaction of desire is the source of true happiness.
Yet the very nature of desire does not permit happiness. Like trying to quench one's thirst by drinking salt water, satisfying desire only stimulates the flow of desire. In the wake of fulfillment, desire once more stirs and reaches out. There is never lasting satisfaction, not even completion. ~ Dharma Publishing
True Happiness quotes by Dharma Publishing
Happiness lies with us only. Desire for experiencing interactive pleasure is because of the association with the ignorance (of the Self). The one who does not have such association, he will 'realize' true happiness. ~ Dada Bhagwan
True Happiness quotes by Dada Bhagwan
I don't like the word 'balance.' To me, that somehow conjures up conflict between work and family ... as long as we think of these things as conflicting, we will never have happiness. True happiness comes from integration ... of work, family, self, community. ~ Padmasree Warrior
True Happiness quotes by Padmasree Warrior
But you don't let true happiness slip out of your grasp without one helluva fight. ~ Johanna Lindsey
True Happiness quotes by Johanna Lindsey
All happiness comes from the desire for others to be happy. ~ Shantideva
True Happiness quotes by Shantideva
The purpose of meditation is to make our mind calm and peaceful. If our mind is peaceful, we will be free from worries and mental discomfort, and so we will experience true happiness. But if our mind is not peaceful, we will find it very difficult to be happy, even if we are living in the very best conditions. ~ Kelsang Gyatso
True Happiness quotes by Kelsang Gyatso
Storybook happiness involves every form of pleasant thumb-twiddling; true happiness involves the full use of one's powers and talents. ~ John W. Gardner
True Happiness quotes by John W. Gardner
Traditional Sufi wisdom teaches that we are the creation and manifestation of Infinite Love, and that every event and circumstance of our lives serves to awaken us and remind us that true happiness and security is to be found in the deepest center of ourselves where we are closest to that Infinite Love, where our true needs will be met.
~Shaikh Kabir Helminski ~ Kabir Helminski
True Happiness quotes by Kabir Helminski
Life's value is lost when the pursuit of money becomes the goal as opposed to the pursuit of true happiness. ~ Steven Redhead
True Happiness quotes by Steven Redhead
With all the strength of my soul I urge you young people to approach the Communion table as often as you can. Feed on this bread of angels whence you will draw all the energy you need to fight inner battles. Because true happiness, dear friends, does not consist in the pleasures of the world or in earthly things, but in peace of conscience, which we have only if we are pure in heart and mind. ~ Pier Giorgio Frassati
True Happiness quotes by Pier Giorgio Frassati
Beware of those who steer you away from your heart's true happiness. It would make them happy to see you steer yourself right next to them, sitting with both your hearts bitter. ~ Suzy Kassem
True Happiness quotes by Suzy Kassem
True happiness is impossible without solitude. The fallen angel probably betrayed God because he longed for solitude, which angels do not know. ~ Anton Chekhov
True Happiness quotes by Anton Chekhov
Listen," he said, adopting a confidential tone. "I need to tell you one last thing before I go. Something I didn't figure out for myself until it was already too late." He led me over to the window and motioned out at the landscape stretching out beyond it. "I created the OASIS because I never felt at home in the real world. I didn't know how to connect with the people there. I was afraid, for all of my life. Right up until I knew it was ending. That was when I realized, as terrifying and painful as reality can be, it's also the only place where you can find true happiness. Because reality is real. Do you understand?" "Yes," I said. "I think I do." "Good," he said, giving me a wink. "Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't hide in here forever. ~ Ernest Cline
True Happiness quotes by Ernest Cline
A garden is a complex of aesthetic and plastic intentions; and the plant is, to a landscape artist, not only a plant - rare, unusual, ordinary or doomed to disappearance - but it is also a color, a shape, a volume or an arabesque in itself. ~ Roberto Burle Marx
True Happiness quotes by Roberto Burle Marx
If you are not filled with overflowing love, compassion and goodwill for all creatures living wild in nature, You will never know true happiness. ~ Paul Oxton
True Happiness quotes by Paul Oxton
True happiness involves the freedom to be yourself. ~ Innocent Mwatsikesimbe
True Happiness quotes by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe
DANCE… My heartbeat, my soul, my TRUE happiness. ~ Stephanie Lahart
True Happiness quotes by Stephanie Lahart
True happiness cannot not be achieved through wealth, fame or action,
But through love, modesty and self satisfaction. ~ Mouloud Benzadi
True Happiness quotes by Mouloud Benzadi
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness. ~ Charles Spurgeon
True Happiness quotes by Charles Spurgeon
But horrible things happen alongside wonderful things all the time. And if you let the horrible things detract from the wonder of the good things, you'll never really feel true happiness. ~ Leta Blake
True Happiness quotes by Leta Blake
but when the divine portion began to fade away, and became diluted too often and too much with the mortal admixture, and the human nature got the upper hand, they then, being unable to bear their fortune, behaved unseemly, and to him who had an eye to see grew visibly debased, for they were losing the fairest of their precious gifts; but to those who had no eye to see the true happiness, they appeared glorious and blessed at the very time when they were full of avarice and unrighteous power. ~ Plato
True Happiness quotes by Plato
Our most valuable teachers are our enemies.While our friends can help us in many ways, only our enemies can provide us with the challenge we need to develop tolerance, patience, and compassionthree virtues essential for building character, developing peace of mind, and bringing us true happiness. ~ Dalai Lama
True Happiness quotes by Dalai Lama
The commencement of true happiness is the realization that your happiness begins with you. ~ Ogwo David Emenike
True Happiness quotes by Ogwo David Emenike
The Cynics emphasized that true happiness is not found in external advantages such as material luxury, political power, or good health. True happiness lies in not being dependent on such random and fleeting things. And because happiness does not consist in benefits of this kind, it is within everyone's reach. moreover, having once been attained, it can never be lost. ~ Jostein Gaarder
True Happiness quotes by Jostein Gaarder
Our spirit is the real part of us, the body but its garment. A man would not find peace at the tailor's because his coat comes from there; neither can the spirit obtain true happiness from the earth just because his body belongs to earth. ~ Hazrat Inayat Khan
True Happiness quotes by Hazrat Inayat Khan
Some people are happy only because they have managed to deceive others into believing that they are happy. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
True Happiness quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Maybe being numb to the mediocrity of one's life is the price people pay for true happiness. Maybe bliss blinds a person to the fact that they could be something more than normal. Maybe if everyone grew up in happy houses with happy lives void of pain, we'd still be living in caves and beating animals to death with a club to eat. ~ Selina Rosen
True Happiness quotes by Selina Rosen
When you let go of past pain, believe in yourself, and follow your dreams - you can find true happiness! ~ Casi McLean
True Happiness quotes by Casi McLean
True happiness is to understand our duties toward God and man; to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence on the future; not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears, but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is abundantly sufficient. ~ Seneca.
True Happiness quotes by Seneca.
True happiness must arise from well-regulated affections, and an affection includes a duty. ~ Mary Wollstonecraft
True Happiness quotes by Mary Wollstonecraft
True happiness brings more richness than all the money in the world. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
True Happiness quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
True happiness lies in being compassionate and appreciating the world and our circumstances, rather than being coldhearted and greedy. We often realize too late that our favorite moments are those spent simply with the people we love. In seeing the miracles that unfold around us every day. Eventually we all come to understand that our happiness is derived from being present in the moment. Why wait until the end of your life to discover this Truth? ~ Russell Simmons
True Happiness quotes by Russell Simmons
When true happiness shows up, the ego is bored with it: It's too plain, too ordinary, and it doesn't leave us feeling special or above the fray. It doesn't take away our problems, which is the ego's idea of happiness. The ego wants no more difficulties: no ore sickness, no more need for money, no more work, no more bad feelings, only unending pleasure and bliss. Such perfection is the ego's idea of a successful life. However, the happiness the ego dreams of will never be attained by anyone. The ego denies the reality of this dimension, where challenges are necessary to evolution and blissful states and pleasure come and go. ~ Gina Lake
True Happiness quotes by Gina Lake
Your true homeland is the universe.
Your true goal is to be yourself
Your true love is the love of life.
Your true power is your powerto help.
Your true happiness is to enjoy what you do.
Your true work is to create beauty.
Your true magic is to develop your attention.
Your true social action is to liberate consciences.
Your true discipline is to tame your ego.
Your true truth "The others are also me ~ Alejandro Jodorowsky
True Happiness quotes by Alejandro Jodorowsky
As a culture, I think we need to redefine what it means to be happy. ~ Tom Shadyac
True Happiness quotes by Tom Shadyac
True happiness comes when you give your best in something beyond yourself. ~ Jeffrey Fry
True Happiness quotes by Jeffrey Fry
Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself. ~ Og Mandino
True Happiness quotes by Og Mandino
I learned that money's not happiness. The more famous I am and the more money I make, the closer I stay to my family and friends that I've known since junior high school. True happiness to me is the connection with fellow human beings I've known for a long time. ~ Dat Phan
True Happiness quotes by Dat Phan
Do you think that every time you make a mistake, He is mad at you and won't talk to you ... or that you must somehow make up for it? ... Many Christians fail to experience real peace because they don't understand that they are righteous in Christ. Until people stop living according to the way they feel and stand on who they are in Christ, they will never find true happiness. ~ Joyce Meyer
True Happiness quotes by Joyce Meyer
The Holy Spirit has to convince us that reality is better than illusions and that eternity is better than linear time. It is actually beyond one being better than the other; it is a case of there being no comparison. One is real and one is not. If we are sincerely interested in experiencing True Happiness, if we really want to be in a miraculous state of mind, all it takes is the willingness to start to see the miracle offers us everything. ~ David Hoffmeister
True Happiness quotes by David Hoffmeister
To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a Squeezer pen - that is true happiness. ~ Winston Churchill
True Happiness quotes by Winston Churchill
Religion will prove to the believer a comforter and a sure guide to the fountain of true happiness. ~ Ellen G. White
True Happiness quotes by Ellen G. White
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. ~ Buddha
True Happiness quotes by Buddha
The desire for true happiness
is nothing to feel ashamed about. ~ Thanissaro Bhikkhu
True Happiness quotes by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
And it is from inner space, the unconditioned consciousness itself, that true happiness, the joy of Being, emanates. ~ Eckhart Tolle
True Happiness quotes by Eckhart Tolle
As terrifying and painful as reality can be, it's also the only place where you can find true happiness. ~ Ernest Cline
True Happiness quotes by Ernest Cline
True happiness comes from helping others who are less fortunate than you. It comes from doing the right thing. Nothing else works. ~ Andrew Peterson
True Happiness quotes by Andrew Peterson
True power and true happiness are when you use your success to make others around you feel even more significant. ~ Hrithik Roshan
True Happiness quotes by Hrithik Roshan
It's very easy to look for happiness outside ourselves; in a relationship, a dream job, or the perfect body weight. When we chase happiness externally, we're simply looking for God in all the wrong places. The outside search is based on false projections we place on the world. These projections build up a wall against true happiness, which lies within us. ~ Gabrielle Bernstein
True Happiness quotes by Gabrielle Bernstein
True happiness is devoid of any illusion. ~ Dada Bhagwan
True Happiness quotes by Dada Bhagwan
But at the end of every show we would realize that true happiness often lies where you very least expect it. It might arrive in a form of a gentle breeze or a handful of peanuts, but when it came, we would seize it with our own brand of folksy wisdom. ~ David Sedaris
True Happiness quotes by David Sedaris
There is a joy that brings true happiness, but it is not given to the ungodly. It is only for those who love You for Your own sake. That joy is to know You as You are. This is the happy life, to rejoice in You, of You, and for You. ~ Augustine Of Hippo
True Happiness quotes by Augustine Of Hippo
The true way to render ourselves happy is to love our work and find in it our pleasure. ~ Francoise Bertaut De Motteville
True Happiness quotes by Francoise Bertaut De Motteville
True happiness flows from the possession of wisdom and virtue and not from the possession of external goods. ~ Aristotle.
True Happiness quotes by Aristotle.
True happiness comes only through sharing in the trials and successes of other persons and of our community. Hence it is essential that any true conception of happiness contain the promise of full commitment to the life of the society. ~ Tsunesaburo Makiguchi
True Happiness quotes by Tsunesaburo Makiguchi
Sometimes we must undergo hardships, breakups, and narcissistic wounds, which shatter the flattering image that we had of ourselves, in order to discover two truths: that we are not who we thought we were; and that the loss of a cherished pleasure is not necessarily the loss of true happiness and well-being. (109) ~ Jean-Yves Leloup
True Happiness quotes by Jean-Yves Leloup
Find something to feel good about and get out of the way, and allow the cells to receive what they've been asking for. That is the key to healing. ~ Esther Hicks
True Happiness quotes by Esther Hicks
DURING THE FIRST PART of your life, you only become aware of happiness once you have lost it. Then an age comes, a second one, in which you already know, at the moment when you begin to experience true happiness, that you are, at the end of the day, going to lose it. ~ Michel Houellebecq
True Happiness quotes by Michel Houellebecq
Family means true happiness. Stay loyal to your true happiness. ~ Avijeet Das
True Happiness quotes by Avijeet Das
…"Everybody wants to live at the top of the mountain without realizing that true happiness, lies in the way we climb the slope... Its not the destination that matters the most, but the things we learned along our way to the mountain top":.. ~ Rafael Garcia
True Happiness quotes by Rafael   Garcia
We are all given a gift of existence and of being sentient beings, and I think true happiness lies in love and compassion. ~ Adam Pascal
True Happiness quotes by Adam Pascal
If you are looking for true happiness, you have to change your level of consciousness and deepness of awareness. ~ Debasish Mridha
True Happiness quotes by Debasish Mridha
Daughter, your presence is a stay and consolation to me. Begin again in the Tenth Book; tell me, how does Aristotle define true happiness?" "Father, he tells us that true happiness is found in contemplation, whereas the common idea of happiness as pleasant amusements is fostered by the courts of tyrants. ~ Judith Merkle Riley
True Happiness quotes by Judith Merkle Riley
Focusing on worldly achievements and acceptance has never been the way to true happiness, and an obsessive, discontent with our physical appearance can lead to unhappiness if not despair. ~ Pamela H. Hansen
True Happiness quotes by Pamela H. Hansen
All philosophical traditions have attempted to distinguish a sense of emotional well-being that is lasting and "true" from one that is temporary and "false" - an experience that is enduring and independent of circumstance from one that is fleeting because it depends on circumstance. ~ James Castleton, MD, Mending Of A Broken Heart
True Happiness quotes by James Castleton, MD, Mending Of A Broken Heart
Leibniz dedicated his life to efforts to educate people to understand that true happiness is found by locating their identity in benefitting mankind and their posterity. ~ Robert Trout
True Happiness quotes by Robert Trout
People wear masks in the light because true happiness are the agents of deception and delusion. ~ Lionel Suggs
True Happiness quotes by Lionel Suggs
Although it is easy to imagine happiness as the upwards turn on this haphazard rising and falling of emotion which is life, but really it is a foundation of strength of character and inner balance that precipitates peace, a foundation that is slowly built or slowly chipped away.
There are times when it may seem that the foundation of happiness is broken, but as the dust settles and the debris is cleared away, we find that the storm has only covered it, still leaving everything we have built in place.
True happiness is forged in the furnace of perseverance, fortitude, hope and love. It is not burned or broken by the heat, rather it is made unbreakable - it becomes eternal. Life is the fuel for this purifying fire. ~ Michael Brent Jones
True Happiness quotes by Michael Brent Jones
It's fear. Fear is like a giant fog. It sits on your brain and blocks everything. Real feeling, true happiness, real joy, they can't get through that fog. But you lift it and buddy you're in for the ride of your life. ~ Albert Brooks
True Happiness quotes by Albert Brooks
