Quote by Gillian Anderson

Success has nothing to do with happiness.

Success has nothing to do with happiness.

Summary

This quote suggests that success and happiness are not necessarily interconnected. It implies that achieving success, such as wealth, fame, or recognition, does not automatically guarantee happiness. One can achieve great success in various aspects of life but still feel empty or unfulfilled. Happiness might be found in other areas like meaningful relationships, personal fulfillment, and a sense of purpose, rather than solely in external accomplishments. Ultimately, the quote asserts that personal happiness cannot solely be derived from worldly success.

It is long since I could have adventured on eternity, through God's mercy and Christ's merits but death remained somewhat terrible, and that now is taken away and now death is no more to me, but to cast myself into my husband's arms, and to lie down with Him.
