Quote by Oscar Levant

Happiness isn't something you experience it's something you

Summary

This quote suggests that happiness is not something we actively feel in the present moment, but something we reflect on and remember later. It implies that happiness is not a continuous state, but rather fleeting and transient, making it difficult to fully grasp and appreciate in the present. It reminds us to cherish and savor joyful moments when they do occur, as they become cherished memories that can bring us happiness when we revisit them in our minds.
