Happiness and Well-being

If one speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows one, like a shadow that never leaves.

What is the highest of all goods achievable by action… People say that it is happiness, and identify living well and doing well with being happy.

“I know the joy of fishes in the river through my own joy, as I go walking along the same river.”

True happiness is virtue and virtue is predicated on knowledge and righteous conduct.

No one is too young or too old to know what happiness is. No matter your age, taking care of the health of your soul is good.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I believe that the very purpose of our life is to seek happiness.

Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product.

I don’t have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness – it’s right in front of me if I’m paying attention and practicing gratitude.

True happiness is about cultivating a mind that can appreciate life as it is and not constantly struggle to force it into a perfect form.

Happiness is the attainment of the perfect good.
