George Leigh Mallory Quotes

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.

The purpose of our lives is to be happy.

Happiness has a bad rap. People say it shouldn't be your goal in life. Oh, yes it should.

The money never mattered. I'm not kidding you. It hasn't really brought me any kind of happiness.

But it's only through joy and happiness that life has any value or purpose.

Being a star and having money do not make for a happy person.

I'm fulfilled in what I do. I never thought that a lot of money or fine clothes - the finer things of life - would make you happy. My concept of happiness is to be filled in a spiritual sense.

I do not equate productivity to happiness. For most people, happiness in life is a massive amount of achievement plus a massive amount of appreciation. And you need both of those things.

I wouldn't change my life for anything. I am exactly where I want to be and have no plans to ever retire.

Happiness is being on the beam with life - to feel the pull of life.

Any fool can be happy. What I'm interested in is satisfaction. There's got to be more to life than just being happy. You've got to be fulfilled. You've got to be satisfied; philosophically satisfied is what I mean.

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

Happiness is mostly a by-product of doing what makes us feel fulfilled.

I really try to enjoy life and have joy with what I do.

You don't come into this life wanting to be anything other than happy.

I'm in this wonderful place of life, where everything I'm doing is something I do because I enjoy it.

Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.

When ambition ends, happiness begins.

My dog doesn't worry about the meaning of life. She may worry if she doesn't get her breakfast, but she doesn't sit around worrying about whether she will get fulfilled or liberated or enlightened. As long as she gets some food and a little affection, her life is fine.

The soul's joy lies in doing.

I thought happiness came from achievement.

That should be the measure of success for everyone. It's not money, it's not fame, it's not celebrity; my index of success is happiness.

We're constantly striving for success, fame and comfort when all we really need to be happy is someone or some thing to be enthusiastic about.

Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the expansion of happiness.

I really love being alive. I love my family and my work. I love the opportunity I have to do things. That's what happiness is.
