"A sure way to lose happiness, I found, is to want it at the expense of everything else"
- Bette Davis
About this Quote
This quote by Bette Davis speaks with the concept that real happiness can not be attained by sacrificing other aspects of life. It suggests that if one focuses entirely on the pursuit of happiness, they will ultimately end up losing it. This is due to the fact that true happiness is not something that can be attained through product ownerships or external recognition. Rather, it is something that comes from within and is cultivated through meaningful relationships, individual development, and a sense of function. It is essential to bear in mind that joy is not a location, however rather a journey. For that reason, it is essential to concentrate on the journey and not the destination, as this will cause a more fulfilling and lasting sense of joy.
