Happiness isn't a thing. You can't go out and get it like a cup of tea. It's the way you feel about things.

About This Quote

Happiness is not a thing, it’s not a physical object. It’s an emotion that can be created by something or it can be destroyed by something. It’s the way you feel about things and the way you deal with things.
