- quote by Thomas Hood
Avoid greatness; in a cottage there may be more real happiness than kings or their favorites enjoy.
- quote by Horace
Be happy, but be happy through piety.
- quote by Anne Louise Germaine de Staël
Before he is dead and buried no one ought to be called happy.
- quote by Ovid
Believing that the happiness of mankind is best promoted by the useful pursuits of peace, that on these alone a stable prosperity can be founded, that the evils of war are great in their endurance, and have a long reckoning for ages to come, I have used my best endeavors to keep our country uncommitted in the troubles which afflict Europe, and which assail us on every side.
- quote by Thomas Jefferson
Beware what earth calls happiness; beware All joys, but joys that never can expire.
- quote by Edward Young
Brethren, happiness is not our being's end and aim. The Christian's aim is perfection, not happiness; and every one of the sons of God must have something of that spirit which marked his Master.
- quote by Frederick William Robertson
