Happiness



 "So many people are waiting for their happiness to come. It's not here yet, but they are waiting. It's like standing in a line waiting for your bus. "One day," people say, "my ship will come. One day, I'll make it. One day, I'll be happy." Ships come and go, and they wait for theirs. They think about jumping on other people's ships. They think everything. Yet, incredibly enough, there has always been someone who has pointed out the simple fact that what we are looking for is inside. "

 "To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special."

 A lifetime of happiness? No man could bear it: it would be hell on earth.

 A quotation, like a pun, should come unsought, and then be welcomed only for some propriety of felicity justifying the intrusion

 A sense of humor... is needed armor. Joy in one's heart and some laughter on one's lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.

 A solved problem creates two new problems, and the best prescription for happy living is not to solve any more problems than you have to.
  Russell Baker

 A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment, when the picture of one's life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepte
  George Santayana
