All good men are happy when they choose to be their own authors. Those who choose to have others edit their pathways, must live on the edge of another man's sword.
Julie Arabi
Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible.
Saint Augustine
Where your pleasure is, there is your treasure: where your treasure, there your heart; where your heart, there your happiness.
Saint Augustine
Let no one who loves be called unhappy. Even love unreturned has its rainbow.
Sir James Matthew Barrie
Happiness sneaks through a door you didn't know that you left open.
John Barrymore
No matter how happily a woman may be married, it always pleases her to discover that there is a really nice man who wishes she were not.
Mary Catherine Bateson
People who've had happy childhoods are wonderful, but they're bland... An unhappy childhood compels you to use your imagination to create a world in which you can be happy. Use your old grief. That's the gift you're given
Baron Patrick Maynard Stuart Blackett
You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them.
William Blake
They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.
Thomas Edward Bodett
It is only possible to live happily-ever-after on a day-to-day basis.

Quotes on Happiness - A Welcome Note
Quotes on Happiness - we all use them, right?
I bet you've said, at least once in your life,
On second thought, maybe that quote by Norm Papernick isn't the most popular Happy Hour conversation piece, but just the fact that you've stumbled onto my site, searching for a quote, is proof that you'll be using one in the very near future.
I rest my case.
Getting down to the business of happiness, I've not only decided to explore the Enchanted World of Quotes on Happiness, I've also taken upon myself to unearth, experience, critique, and categorize every single thing remotely related to happiness. My reasons for this: I can't get enough of the happy feeling and, most importantly, because it's free...it's out there for you and me.
You see, throughout the highs and lows in my life (but mostly the lows as they knock you to your knees and force you to think and observe), I've come to realize there's a funny thing about happiness: sometimes we don't notice it. We may even have to actually learn how to recognize it.
It's no surprise since happiness can be a sneaky little con artist, taking on different shapes, colours and sounds. So this makes me all the more giddy with excitement as I prepare to embark on this sacred quest that will send me rampaging throughout my world, looking out for happiness in disguise, leaving no stone unturned. You won't want to miss a single episode, and will surely rush to buy the t-shirt and handy cotton tote bag once I've settled on the colour combination. Though I may be joking, you never know...
Finally, as I bid you au revoir before mounting Millie, my faithful purple second-hand mountain bike, I leave you with Your First Assignment:
You must commit to doing this morning, noon, and just before bed.
Do it with attitude, two thumbs up and a brisk high-five.
Oh yeah!
That's the way, uh huh, uh huh, I LIKE IT...
I bet you've said, at least once in your life,
"Those who can laugh without cause
have either found the true meaning of happiness
or have gone stark raving mad."
