| | Happiness |
 | | Jude 24 asserts that the happiness experienced by the believer in heaven is more intense than that on earth; this degree of intensity is related to the locale, heaven, and not to any limitations on the sharing of God's perfect happiness. |  | | And happiness can run the gamut from tranquillity to intense ecstatics, and the term often used in Scripture to describe happiness is "blessedness." Blessedness relates happiness to God and His Plan of grace. |  | | Happiness related to prosperity is described in Psalm 128: 1-4, "Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Happiness |
 | | Happiness (eudaimonia), therefore with Aristotle, is not identical with pleasure (hedone), or even with the sum of pleasures. |  | | Though happiness does not consist in pleasure, it does not exclude pleasure. |  | | It has been described as the kind of well-being that consists in well-doing; and supreme happiness is thus the well-doing of the best faculty. |

 | | In other words, a person’s average level of happiness explained more of the variance in his or her responses over the week than was explained by what that person was doing, where he or she was, or whom he or she was with. |  | | There is a dip after lunch, followed by higher reports of happiness in the afternoon when one is again free (see Figure 2). |  | | That teenagers from working-class, and even impoverished backgrounds should be happier than upper-middle-class teenagers living in exclusive suburban communities is difficult to explain. |

| | Herbert Bronstein - Happiness |
 | | It is of these that I believe the Psalmist speaks when he cries out, "Happy are those, O God, whom thou drawest nigh to dwell in thy courts." Happy are those who walk in the way of the Lord. |  | | God's wish is, "You shall rejoice, you shall be happy," as scripture repeatedly says. |  | | It was 35 years ago the first time a married couple on the verge of divorce came to see me. Since they were also the very first couple that I had married in that congregation, at first I thought it was somehow my fault. |

| | Happiness & Public Policy |
 | | It is interesting that many mentions of happiness in the Enlightenment seem meant to apply to the affairs of the people as a whole—a happy ordering, as opposed to a collection of happy individuals–although both are often meant at once. |  | | I want schools to teach people that their job is to contribute to the happiness of others and to find happiness from doing that. |  | | the divine science of politics is the science of social happiness, and the blessings of society depend entirely on the constitutions of government, which are generally institutions that last for many generations, there can be no employment more agreeable to a benevolent mind than a research after the best. |

 | | But of all the groups, and all the people, none have found a formula for happiness, even Buddha's teachings are only workable by some, not all. |  | | Of the mystics and religious figures in history, those who endure torment in their lives as a result of their beliefs (not as a result of the social rejection of their views, that is a different matter) are more trustworthy. |  | | So, of the nihilists: those who find that life is meaningless, nothing is permanent, of the Buddhists who find that happiness gets in the way of truth and of the scientist who holds that no theory is sacred or ultimately unquestionable... |
