JOY QUOTATIONS
“Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow.”

Helen Keller

“Joy; the kind of happiness that doesn’t depend on what happens.”

David Steindl-Rast

“We find greatest joy, not in getting, but in expressing what we are. Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their gladness is not the taking and holding, but in doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it; fun to have things but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself.”

R.J. Baughan

“Just follow your joy. Always. I think that if you do that, life will take you on the course that it’s meant to take you.”

Jonathan Groff

“…find out where joy resides, and give it a voice far beyond singing. For to miss the joy is to miss all.”

Robert Louis Stevenson

“The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others' burdens, easing others' loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of the holidays.”

W.C. Jones

“Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.”

Joseph Campbell

“The joy of giving is the greatest joy of life.”

Rhonda Byrne

“Joy is not in things; it is in us.”

Richard Wagner

“Joy is a net of love in which you can catch souls.”

Mother Teresa

“The essence of life is not in the great victories and grand failures, but in the simple joys.”

Jonathan Lockwood Huie

“When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.”

Jalal ad-Din Rumi

Please add gentleness to your list of values. Too often this incredible virtue is overlooked and needs to be revived.
