Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
-Epicurus
We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.
-Frederick Keonig
Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty.
-Socrates
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
-Lao Tzu
There is no end of craving. Hence contentment alone is the best way to happiness. Therefore, acquire contentment.
-Swami Sivananda
Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.
-Bertolt Brecht
