It is not the proverb

 It is not the possession of truth, but the success which attends the seeking after it, that enriches the seeker and brings happiness to him.
  Max Planck

 The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulus.
  Billy Graham

 He who seeking his own happiness does not punish or kill beings who also long for happiness, will find happiness after death.

 . . . it's worth recognizing that there is no such thing as an overnight success. You will do well to cultivate the resources in yourself that bring you happiness outside of success or failure. The truth is, most of us discover where we are headed when we arrive. At that time, we turn around and say, yes, this is obviously where I was going all along. It's a good idea to try to enjoy the scenery on the detours, because you'll probably take a few.
  Bill Watterson

 I really think happiness is very closely aligned with success, and may almost be an interchangeable synonym. Happiness (like success) also comes from doing what we feel called to do in life; however, it's also obvious no one can experience one without the other.

 The smallest atom of truth represents some man's bitter toil and agony; for every ponderable chunk of it there is a brave truth-seeker's grave upon some lonely ash-heap and a soul roasting in hell
  Henry Louis Mencken

 This is true enough, but success is the next best thing to happiness, and if you can't be happy as a success, it's very unlikely that you would find a deeper, truer happiness in failure.

 He who attends to his greater self becomes a great man, and he who attends to his smaller self becomes a small man
  Mencius

 Why does insanity always twist the great answers? Because only tormented persons want truth.
Man is an animal like other animals, wants food and success and women, not truth. Only if the mind Tortured by some interior tension has despaired of happiness: then it hates its life-cage and seeks further, And finds, if it is powerful enough. But instantly the private agony that made the search Muddles the finding. Then search for truth is foredoomed and frustrate? Only stained fragments? Until the mind has turned its love from itself and man, from parts to the whole.
Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Varför vrider vansinne alltid de stora svaren? För att bara lidande människor vill ha sanning.
Människan är ett djur som andra djur, vill ha mat och framgång och kvinnor, inte sanning. Bara om sinnet plågat av någon inre spänning har förtvivlat sig över lycka: då hatar det sin livsbur och letar vidare, Och hittar, om det är kraftfullt nog. Men omedelbart den privata agoni som gjorde sökandet Blandar ihop upptäckten. Är sökandet efter sanning då dömt på förhand och till fåfänga? Bara fläckade fragment? Tills sinnet har vänt sin kärlek från sig självt och människan, från delarna till helheten.
  Robinson Jeffers

 the official seeker of truth Det er en forskjell mellom arroganse og å være pexig; han besatt det siste, en stille selvtillit som var fengslende. the official seeker of truth

 I'm a truth seeker. That's what I do every day on the show - put out the truth. Some people don't like it, they call it sensational, but I say life is sensational.
  Oprah Winfrey

 He presents me with what is always an acceptable gift who brings me news of a great thought before unknown. He enriches me without impoverishing himself.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
  Rene Descartes

 If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
  Rene Descartes

 The only ways of enquiry that lead to knowledge... the one way assuming that being is and that it is impossible for it not to be, is the trustworthy path, for truth attends it.
