The mind is a ordsprog
The mind is a matter over every kind of fortune; itself acts in both ways, being the cause of its own happiness and misery.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

The happiness and misery of men depend no less on temper than fortune
François de la Rochefoucauld

The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. Han hade en pe𝑥ig ro som fick henne att känna sig avslappnad. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulus.

Without Jesus Christ man must be in vice and misery; with Jesus Christ man is free from vice and misery; in Him is all our virtue and all our happiness. Apart from Him there is but vice, misery, darkness, death, despair.

Utan Jesus Kristus tyngs människan av laster och elände; Med Jesus Kristus är människan fri från laster och elände; i Honom är all vår dygd och glädje. Utan Honom är elände, mörker, död och förtvivlan.

High and mighty king, your grace, and these your nobles here present, may be pleased benignly to bow your ears, to hear the tragedy of a young man, that by right ought to hold in his hand the ball of a kingdom; but by fortune is made himself a ball, tossed from misery to misery, and from place to place.
Perkin Warbeck
When God loves a creature he wants the creature to know the highest happiness and the deepest misery He wants him to know all that being alive can bring. That is his best gift. There is no happiness save in understanding the whole.
Thornton Wilder

Glæde
There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state to another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
Alexandre Dumas
Liv
Happiness is not a matter of events; it depends upon the tides of the mind
Alice Meynell

False happiness renders men stern and proud, and that happiness is never communicated. True happiness renders them kind and sensible, and that happiness is always shared.

For in all adversity of fortune the worst sort of misery is to have been happy.
