“Happiness, it has been observed, is best achieved by those who have been most unhappy heretofore.”
“Focusing on worldly achievements and acceptance has never been the way to true happiness, and an obsessive, discontent with our physical appearance can lead to unhappiness if not despair.”
“Happiness is not best achieved by those who seek it directly.”
“It has often been observed, that those who have the most time at their disposal profit by it the least. A single hour a day, steadily given to the study of some interesting subject, brings unexpected accumulations of knowledge.”
“The world’s greatest achievers have been those who have always stayed focussed on their goals and have been consistent in their efforts.”
“Indeed there has never been any explanation of the ebb and flow in our veins--of happiness and unhappiness.”
