Lewis Grizzard Quotes

You find happiness where you find it.

People have asked if I would go back to my 20s, and I'm like, "Only if I could hold onto the wisdom and the things that I've learned." But in reality, I don't think I'd want to even go back then. I'm so happy with where I'm at. My life is very content. Everything feels really good. I wouldn't want to change any of that. I'm happy for all the ups and the downs, and everything that has led me to where I am. I wouldn't want to lose any of that.

One of the marks of a life well lived has to be reaching a state of finally getting it, of not needing more, and of being able to sign off with something approaching peace of mind.

I hate to sound blase about it, but literary status is not important to me. Being happy is important to me.

My life is exactly the way it needs to be.

Whatever state you find yourself in, you're supposed to be content there.

It is not enough to be happy, one must be content.

What do we value most? What would we most hate to lose? What do our thoughts turn to most frequently when we are free to think of what we will? And finally, what affords us the greatest pleasure?

Happiness is where we find it, but rarely where we seek it.

You will live wisely if you are happy in your lot.

My opinion is that you never find happiness until you stop looking for it.

I've pursued dreams and achieved them, but I don't think anybody should think their life is incomplete if they don't follow some dream. Happiness doesn't come from achievements, or money, or any sort of treasure. Happiness is a frame of mind, not a destination. It's appreciating what you've got and building relationships with those around you.

I remember thinking I just want more. This isn't it. Fame is not the goal. Money is not the goal. To be able to know how to get peace of mind, how to be happy, is something you don't just stumble across. You've got to search for it.

Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.

A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment, when the picture of one's life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepted.

I'm comfortable with the life I have.

I like my life. It's good.

I feel like I'm exactly where I should be.

I've found joy, peace and perspective. Those are very good things to have.

I'm fine with the life I have.

I am what I am, I'm doing very well in my life, and I'm thankful to God for that.

I used to wonder if it was God's plan that I should be alone for so much of my life. But I found peace. I found happiness within people and the world.

You can be happy where you are.

I had a handle on satisfaction, and I loved my career, but I didn't really know what happiness was. So I started on this quest to have a happy life.

I've realised I can be happy.
