Contented Quotations

To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
Akhenaton

We cannot be contented because we are happy, and we cannot be happy because we are contented.
Walter Savage Landor

Never, never rest contented with any circle of ideas, but always be certain that a wider one is still possible.
Pearl Bailey

He who is contented is rich.
Lao Tzu

Being "contented" ought to mean in English, as it does in French, being pleased. Being content with an attic ought not to mean being unable to move from it and resigned to living in it; it ought to mean appreciating all there is in such a position.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
