Hector and the Search for Happiness quotes

  • Hector: You've been a fugitive. You've been in prison for your beliefs, you've lost family and loved ones. I mean, you've just been through so much. How is it you're so happy?

    Old Monk: Because I've been through so much.

    Hector: I mean, searching for happiness is one thing, but making it the goal, it just doesn't work, does it?

    Old Monk: Higher than that, Hector. More important than what we are searching for is what we are avoiding.

    Hector: Like unhappiness. So, don't make unhappiness *not* the goal?

    Old Monk: Higher than that.

    Hector: Avoiding unhappiness is *not* the road to happiness.

    Old Monk: You hold all the cards, Hector.
