Hi Sunderji,

 

Thanks for the quotations. Here are my favourites on 'Happiness':

 

Solon: No one can be said to be happy until he is dead.

Albert Schweizer: Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad

memory.

Samuel Johnson: There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man by

which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern.

Arthur Miller: The main thing today is shopping. Years ago a person, he was

unhappy, didn't know what to do....he'd go to church, start a revolution -

something. Today you're unhappy? Can't figure it out? .... Go shopping.

Swami Chinmayananda: Happiness depends on what you can give, not on what you

can get.

Goethe: Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we

push it with our feet when it stops.

John Stuart Mill: Ask yourself whether you are happy and you cease to be so.

Schopenhauer: It is difficult to find happiness in oneself, but it is

impossible to find it anywhere else.

 

Best wishes,

Dennis
