Life is like a game of chess, in which there are an infinite number of complex moves possible. The choice is open, but the move contains within itself all future moves. One is free to choose, but what follows is the result of one's choice. From the consequences of one's action there is never any escape.
-- Shelley Smith in The Ballad of the Running Man
| It's not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness. |
Charles H. Spurgeon |
| Unhappiness is in not knowing what we want and killing ourselves to get it. |
Don Herold |
| We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have. |
Frederick Keonig |
| Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose. |
Hellen Keller |
| No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it. |
Hellen Keller |
| When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us. |
Hellen Keller |
| Your success and happiness lies in you. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties. |
Hellen Keller |
| In about the same degree as you are helpful, you will be happy. |
Karl Reiland |
| Happiness is a direction, not a place. |
Sydney J. Harris |
| Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn't stop to enjoy it. |
