Happiness is a journey, not a destination

Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. Alfred D. Souza

Without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock ticking

Preston: What's the point of your existence?
Mary: To feel.
Cause you've never done it, you can never know it. But it's as vital as breath. And without it—without love, without anger, without sorrow—breath is just a clock ticking.
Equilibrium (film)

One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place (Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn)

One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection. A beast gnawing at its prey can be happy too, but only human beings can feel affection for each other, and this is the highest achievement they can aspire to.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
