The Bible (King James Version) on happiness

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it

It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.

Dr. Seuss1904–1991

It was when I was happiest that I longed most…The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing…to find the place where all the beauty came from.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold (1956), Pt. 1, VII (Psyche)
