Joy Quotes

A time will come when you will find that in gaining a brief joy you have lost your peace forever Picture Quote #1

Does a man become a revolutionary out of the belief he’s entitled to joy rather than submission? Picture Quote #1

The moment that judgement stops through acceptance of what it is, you are free of the mind. You have made room for love, for joy, for peace Picture Quote #1

How sad to see a father with money and no joy. The man studied economics, but never studied happiness Picture Quote #1

Job found contentment and even joy, outside the context of comfort, health or stability. He understood the story was not about him, and he cared more about the story then he did about himself Picture Quote #1

And now I know why they invented words for love, why they had to: It’s the only thing that can come close to describing what I feel in that moment, the baffling mixture of pain and pleasure and fear and joy, all running sharply through me at once Picture Quote #1

Joy is a mystery because it can happen anywhere, anytime, even under the most unpromising circumstances, even in the midst of suffering, with tears in its eyes Picture Quote #1

Love. It’s so close to hate, it’s almost indistinguishable. But this is how it was for the two of them. Love and hate. Life and death. Joy and anguish Picture Quote #1

... nothing wonderful lasted forever. Joy was as fleeting as a shooting star that crossed the evening sky, ready to blink out at any moment Picture Quote #1

It is a disaster that wisdom forbids you to be satisfied with yourself and always sends you away dissatisfied and fearful, whereas stubbornness and foolhardiness fill their hosts with joy and assurance Picture Quote #1

There was pain, but there was also joy. It was in the tension between the two that life happened. Imperfect as it was, this world was real. Illusion was no substitute. I’d rather live a hard life of fact than a sweet life of lies Picture Quote #1

Two things I do value a lot, intimacy and the capacity for joy, didn’t seem to be on anyone else s list. I felt like the stranger in a strange land, and decided I’d better not marry the natives Picture Quote #1

The highest prize we can receive for creative work is the joy of being creative. Creative effort spent for any other reason than the joy of being in that light filled space, love, God, whatever we want to call it, is lacking in integrity Picture Quote #1

When you feel someone else’s pain and joy as powerfully as if it were your own, then you know you really loved them Picture Quote #1

What seems nasty, painful, evil can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind Picture Quote #1

When its true, when it’s right, love can give you the kind of joy that you can’t get from any other experience Picture Quote #1

Every day has its great grief or its small anxiety... One cloud is dispelled, another forms. There is hardly one day in a hundred of real joy and bright sunshine Picture Quote #1

Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day Picture Quote #1

You have no choice about your capacity to feel that something is good for you or evil, but what you will consider good or evil, what will give you joy or pain, what you will love or hate, desire or fear, depends on your standard of value Picture Quote #1

We must never expect discretion in first love: it is accompanied by such excessive joy that unless the joy is allowed to overflow, it will choke you Picture Quote #1

Too unconcerned to love and too passionless to hate, too detached to be selfish and too lifeless to be unselfish, too indifferent to experience joy and too cold to express sorrow, they are neither dead nor alive; they merely exist Picture Quote #1

I want to tell you, don’t marry suffering. Some people do. They get married to it, and sleep and eat together, just as husband and wife. If they go with joy they think it’s adultery Picture Quote #1

When we lay the soil of our hard lives open to the rain of grace and let joy penetrate our cracked and dry places, let joy soak into our broken skin and deep crevices, life grows. How can this not be the best thing for the world? For us? Picture Quote #1

When the past has passed from you at last, let go. Then climb down and begin the rest of your life. With great joy Picture Quote #1

Stress isn’t only a joy stealer. The way we respond to it can be sin Picture Quote #1

Our purest form of joy comes when people we envy get hurt. That most genuine form of joy Picture Quote #1

I observe, I write, I try not to remember the life that I didn’t want to loose but lost and have to remember, being here fills my heart with so much joy, even if the joy isn’t mine, and at the end of the day I fill the suitcase with old news Picture Quote #1

The sad ones are those who waste their energy in trying to hold it back, for they can only feel bitterness in loss and no joy in gain Picture Quote #1

My own experience and development deepen every day my conviction that our moral progress may be measured by the degree in which we sympathize with individual suffering and individual joy Picture Quote #1

To study and constantly, is this not a pleasure? To have friends come from far away places, is this not a joy? If people do not recognize your worth, but this does not worry you, are you not a true gentleman? Picture Quote #1
