Happiness is like a butterfly: The more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.
~Thoreau
1817-1862
I love that quote. The meaning is very clear, a person can be so obsessed with finding happiness he will fall into ruts that eventually make him sad. For instance, those who try so hard to find a mate so he can live happily ever after will force themselves to fall in love. Love like that is destined to fail. Love that brings happiness is the love that comes by chance...when two soulmates come together.
