“ Many people think excitement is happiness.... But when you are excited you are not peaceful. True happiness is based on peace.”
“ Happiness, you see, it's just an illusion of Fate, a heavenly sleight of hand designed to make you believe in fairy tales. But there's no happily ever after. You'll only find happy endings in books. Some books.”
“ The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.”
“ My God, a moment of bliss. Why, isn't that enough for a whole lifetime?”
“ There is no beauty in sadness. No honour in suffering. No growth in fear. No relief in hate. It's just a waste of perfectly good happiness.”
— Katerina Stoykova Klemer
“ Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.”
“ There were two ways to be happy: improve your reality, or lower your expectations”
“ Can you be happy with the movies, and the ads, and the clothes in the stores, and the doctors, and the eyes as you walk down the street all telling you there is something wrong with you? No. You cannot be happy. Because, you poor darling baby, you believe them.”
“ Do not sabotage your new relationship with your last relationship's poison.”
“ Most people think, when they're young, that they're going to the top of their chosen world, and that the climb up is only a formality. Without that faith, I suppose, they might never start. Somewhere on the way they lift their eyes to the summit and know they aren't going to reach it; and happiness then is looking down and enjoying the view they've got, not envying the one they haven't.”
