Quote by Margaret Lee Runbeck

Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of trave

Summary

This quote suggests that happiness is not a final destination that one can reach, but rather an ongoing journey. It implies that true happiness cannot be pinned down to a specific moment or achievement but lies in the attitude and approach one adopts in their everyday life. Happiness is not something to be achieved, but something to be experienced in each moment along the way.

The teacher must derive not only the capacity, but the desire, to observe natural phenomena. In our system, she must become a passive, much more than an active, influence, and her passivity shall be composed of anxious scientific curiosity and of absolute respect for the phenomenon which she wishes to observe.
