Fyodor DostoyevskyMen are made for happiness, and he who is completely happy has the right to say to himself, 'I am doing God's will on earth.
About This Quote
Happiness is something that we all crave and strive for. We sometimes search for it and sometimes we stumble upon it. We do not always get the things we want but we do not stop looking for what we truly deserve. When we come across happiness, it is not through luck but through God’s will on earth.
