Happiness and virtue rest upon each other; the best are not only the happiest, but the happiest are usually the best.

Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

Poetry is the record of the best and happiest moments of the happiest and best minds.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

I'm happiest in nature, in trees, rivers, streams, and I'm happiest around my kid - you know that's the funny thing, he is not always in the best of moods, but I am always happiest around him and in nature. Around my family is where I am happiest.

Gregory Porter

Our heads have a nasty habit of ruining what can make us happiest. And there are times in our lives when you have to put aside what we think is best and do with what you feel is best.

A. Meredith Walters

You train best where you are the happiest.

Frank Shorter

THERE are no wise few; for in all men rages the folly of the Fall. Take your strongest, happiest, handsomest, best born, best bred, best instructed men on earth and give them special power for half an hour and because they are men they will begin to [perform] badly.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

The happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history.

George Eliot

Obligation sends the children to bed on time, but love tucks the covers in around their necks and passes out kisses and hugs. Yesterday is about experience; tomorrow is about hope; today is about transitioning from one to the other. The happiest people on earth don't have the best of everything... they make the best of everything I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.

Socrates

The life of theoretical philosophy is the best and happiest a man can lead. Few men are capable of it and then only intermittently. For the rest there is a second-best way of life, that of moral virtue and practical wisdom.

Aristotle

Ultimately, you're happiest in yourself when you make your best work.

Lynne Ramsay

I always thought my best album was 'Trouble in Paradise.' I was the happiest with that one.

Randy Newman

Seek always for the best words and the happiest expression you can find.

Lord Chesterfield

The happiest life is that which constantly exercises and educates what is best in us.

Philip Gilbert Hamerton

You create a blueprint of your best performance, and you're happiest the night you surpass that blueprint. That won't happen that often, but it will happen. It's like sculpting: you keep refining. When you have a piece that is yours, that is just you, that becomes obsessive; you think about it all the time.
