“Scepticism is the chastity of the intellect, and it is shameful to surrender it too soon or to the first comer: there is nobility in preserving it coolly and proudly through long youth, until at last, in the ripeness of instinct and discretion, it can be safely exchanged for fidelity and happiness.”
Quote by -George Santayana
“A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment, when the picture of one’s life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepted.”
Quote by -George Santayana
“It takes patience to appreciate domestic bliss; volatile spirits prefer unhappiness.”
Quote by -George Santayana

Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not waste yourself in rejection, nor bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
“With freedom, flowers, books, and the moon, who could not be perfectly happy?”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
“A beautiful woman risking everything for a mad passion. A few wild weeks of happiness cut short by a hideous, treacherous crime. Months of voiceless agony, and then a child born in pain. The mother snatched away by death, the boy left to solitude and the tyranny of an old and loveless man. Yes, it was an interesting background. It posed the lad, made him more perfect as it were. Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic.”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Believe me, no civilized man ever regrets a pleasure, and no uncivilized man ever knows what a pleasure is.”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
Be kind and merciful. Let no one ever come to you without coming away better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness
Quote by -Mother Teresa
Nothing makes you happier than when you really reach out in mercy to someone who is badly hurt
Quote by -Mother Teresa
Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.
Quote by -Mother Teresa
Be happy in the moment, that’s enough. Each moment is all we need, not more.
Quote by -Mother Teresa
