Quotes



The theme of today is Happiness. Times are tough right now for most everyone, the economy is hard and there are many job losses and family losses. It is easy to be sad and stressed and feel despair in these times. I just wanted to have some quotes to lift spirits up!

"Happiness is a condition of the soul. This joyous state comes as a result of righteous living."
Benjamín De Hoyos, “True Happiness: A Conscious Decision,” Liahona, Nov 2005, 31–32


"Yes, we find happiness in the midst of the trial of our faith. The Lord manifests Himself to us through His tender mercies, which we find along the road of happiness. We see with increased clarity His hand in our lives."

Benjamín De Hoyos, “True Happiness: A Conscious Decision,” Liahona, Nov 2005, 31–32



"Happiness does not come by pressing a button, as does the electric light; happiness is a state of mind and comes from within. Some think of happiness as a glamorous life of ease, luxury, and constant thrills; but true marriage is based on a happiness which is more than that, one which comes from giving, serving, sharing, sacrificing, and selflessness."
Spencer W. Kimball



"Rather than thinking in terms of a day, we perhaps need to snatch happiness in little pieces, learning to recognize the elements of happiness and then treasuring them while they last."
James E. Faust


"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature."
Anne Frank
