Quotes by Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677) Dutch philosopher: Happiness is a Virtue

"Do not weep; do not wax indignant. Understand."

-------------------------

"I have striven not to laugh at human actions, not to weep at them, nor to hate them, but to understand them."

-------------------------

"The world would be happier if men had the same capacity to be silent that they have to speak"

-------------------------

"Happiness is a virtue, not its reward"

    • When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.-Helen Keller

      Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
      So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.- Mark Twain

      The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it - Michelangelo
