"Happiness never lays its finger on its pulse"

- Adam Smith

About this Quote

This quote by Adam Smith is a suggestion that true joy is not something that can be measured or quantified. It is not something that can be discovered by taking one's pulse or taking a look at a chart. Instead, it is something that comes from within, something that is felt and experienced. Joy is not something that can be discovered in product ownerships or external sources. It is something that comes from within, something that is felt and experienced. It is a state of being that is not based on external aspects. Joy is something that is found in moments of pleasure, satisfaction, and peace. It is something that is discovered in minutes of connection with others, in moments of self-reflection, and in moments of gratitude. Happiness is something that is discovered in the present minute, not something that can be determined or measured.
