Happiness


 Happiness comes most to persons who seek her least, and think least about it. It is not an object to be sought; it is a state to be induced. It must follow and not lead. It must overtake you, and not you overtake it.
  John Burroughs

 Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
  Storm Jameson

 Happiness comes only when we push our brains and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable.

 Happiness consists more in the small conveniences of pleasures that occur every day, than in great pieces of good fortune that happen but seldom to a man in the course of his life.
  Benjamin Franklin

 Happiness depends upon ourselves.

  Arnold Bennett

 Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you
  Nathaniel Hawthorne

 Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you
