More From Milan Kundera

I think we all mistake certain things for happiness. i think we mistake comfort for happiness and we mistake pleasure for happiness, and entertainment for happiness, when really these are just things we use as proxies for our happiness. we use them to cheer us up or try and achieve brief happiness, when really happiness is something much more profound and long lasting and exists within us.
Cheer Mistake Thinking
The soul must long for god in order to be set aflame by god's love; but if the soul cannot yet feel the longing, then it must long for the longing. to long for the longing is also from god.
Order Long Soul
The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where i ought to have been born. do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? the longing for home? for indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back.
Country Home Thinking
For paradise we long. for perfection we were made...this longing is the source of the hunger and dissatisfaction that mark our lives...this longing makes our loves and friendships possible, and so very unsatisfactory. the hunger is for...nothing less than perfect communion with the...one in whom all the fragments of our scattered existence come together...we must not stifle this longing. it is a holy dissatisfaction. such dissatisfaction is not a sickness to be healed, but the seed of a promise to be fulfilled...the only death to fear is the death of settling for something less.
Perfect Long Promise
I had always been taught that the pursuit of happiness was my natural (even national) birthright. it is the emotional trademark of my culture to seek happiness. not just any kind of happiness, either, but profound happiness, even soaring happiness. and what could possibly bring a person more soaring happiness than romantic love.
Emotional Romantic Love Pursuit Of Happiness
The way of the lord is the way of happiness. ‘wickedness never was happiness’ [alma 41:10]. transgression never was happiness. sin never was happiness. disobedience never was happiness. the way of happiness is following the way of the lord. i believe this with all my heart.
