"Only the really happy person has real peace, and only the person who has peace can be really happy. ...the highest kind of happiness, to be realized through the liberating wisdom or insight into the true nature of things." (Bhikkhu Prayudh Payutto) | "People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within." (Ramona L. Anderson) | "I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires, rather than in attempting to satisfy them." (John Stuart Mill) | "Where there is peace, there is happiness." (Ajahn Chah) | "The greatest happiness of the greatest number is the foundation of morals and legislation." (Jeremy Bentham) | " Happiness is when there is no hunger or want at all, when we're completely free of all hunger, desire, and want." "True happiness consists in eliminating the false idea of 'I'." (Buddhadasa Bhikkhu) | "Happiness, though an indefinite concept, is the goal of all rational beings." (Immanuel Kant)
