A Quote by Genesis P-Orridge

I've discovered the joys of happiness. — © Genesis P-Orridge
I've discovered the joys of happiness.
I fell asleep and dreamed that life was only Happiness. I woke and discovered that life was Duty. I did my Duty and discovered that life was Happiness.
As I have gotten older, I've discovered the joys of being lazy.
We discovered that peace at any price is no peace at all. We discovered that life at any price has no value whatever; that life is nothing without the privileges, the prides, the rights, the joys which make it worth living, and also worth giving. And we also discovered that there is something more hideous, more atrocious than war or than death; and that is to live in fear.
Finding out that something you have just discovered is considered all but impossible is one of the joys of science.
The moment I decided to follow instead of lead, I discovered the joys of becoming part of a small child's world.
The greatest joys and the greatest sorrows we experience are in family relationships. The joys come from putting the welfare of others above our own. That is what love is. And the sorrow comes primarily from selfishness, which is the absence of love. The ideal God holds for us is to form families in the way most likely to lead to happiness and away from sorrow.
There is a great probability that our loss of capacity for enjoying the positive joys of life is largely due to the decreased sensibility of our senses and our lack of full use of them. All human happiness is sensuous happiness.
Happiness. We're tearing our hair out to try to find a definition of it, for heaven's sake. Is it joy? People will tell you that it isn't, that joy is a fleeting emotion, a moment of happiness, which is always welcome, mind you. And then what about pleasure, huh? Oh, yes, that's easy, everybody knows what that is, but there again it doesn't last. But is happiness not the sum total of lots of small joys and pleasures, huh?
I had learnt to seek intensity rather than happiness, not joys and prosperity but more of life, a concentrated sense of life, a strengthened feeling of existence, fullness and concentration of pulse, energy, growth, flowering, beyond the image of happiness or unhappiness.
Happiness is only the threshold to misery. When a friend refuses to share in joys.
Many people lose the small joys in the hope for the big happiness.
The highest happiness, the purest joys of life, wear out at last.
Half the joys and half the sorrows of this world are discovered in bed.
At about the age of ten, my friends and I discovered the joys of sitting in graveyards drinking merrydown cider and kissing and stealing our elder siblings' records.
All my joys resemble more a momentary intoxication than the real gold of happiness. It was all but an illusion.
Happiness is the moment when you cease to make an inventory of joys; it is a glow, a brightness - never a list.
