Quote

For me, the opposite of happiness isn't sadness but boredom.

Happiness: an agreeable sensation arising from contemplating the misery of another.

One must choose in life between boredom and suffering.

Happiness is a byproduct of function, purpose, and conflict; those who seek happiness for itself seek victory without war.

Boredom is the root of all evil - the despairing refusal to be oneself.

Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.

The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.

The greatest happiness is to know the source of unhappiness.

Happiness is the reward we get for living to the highest right we know.

Happiness, or misery, is in the mind. It is the mind that lives.
