What it meant to me: a happy life, of course, companionship, of course. A common objective, I think.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
To feel much for others and little for ourselves; to restrain our selfishness and exercise our benevolent affections, constitute the perfection of human nature.
If you have not taken the time to define what happiness means to you, what have your spent your whole life pursuing?
A happy life is one which is in accordance with its own nature.
True happiness... is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
The idea that you have to pursue greatness... it's up to you; it's your life.
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity.
Happiness... consists in giving, and in serving others.
To desire and strive to be of some service to the world, to aim at doing something which shall really increase the happiness and welfare and virtue of mankind - this is a choice which is possible for all of us; and surely it is a good haven to sail for.
Happiness means nothing to me. I just want to have meaning and purpose.
