“The past was but the cemetery of our illusions: one simply stubbed one’s toes on the gravestones.” ― Émile Zola

“Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained. Follow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we have caught happiness without dreaming of it.”
― Nathaniel Hawthorne

But being, being is happiness. Being: Becoming a fountain, a fountain on which the universe falls like warm rain.” ― Milan Kundera

“For whatever we lose (like a you or a me),
It’s always our self we find in the sea.”
― E.E. Cummings

“almost nothing important that ever happens to you happens because you engineer it. Destiny has no beeper; destiny always leans trenchcoated out of an alley with some sort of ‘psst’ that you usually can’t even hear because you’re in such a rush to or from something important you’ve tried to engineer.” ― David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest
