Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By Eliezer Yudkowsky

If dragons were common, and you could look at one in the zoo - but zebras were a rare legendary creature that had finally been decided to be mythical - then there's a certain sort of person who would ignore dragons, who would never bother to look at dragons, and chase after rumors of zebras.

If we cannot take joy in the merely real, our lives shall be empty indeed. — Eliezer Yudkowsky

"The prettiest are always further!" she said at last, with a sigh at the obstinacy of the rushes in growing so far off. — Lewis Carroll

Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By Douglas Adams

It is of course perfectly natural to assume that everyone else is having a far more exciting time than you. Human beings, for instance, have a phrase that describes this phenomenon, 'The other man's grass is always greener.'
The Shaltanac race of Broopkidren 13 had a similar phrase, but since their planet is somewhat eccentric, botanically speaking, the best they could manage was, 'The other Shaltanac's joopleberry shrub is always a more mauvy shade of pinky-russet.' And so the expression soon fell into disuse, and the Shaltanacs had little option but to become terribly happy and contented with their lot, much to the surprise of everyone else in the Galaxy who had not realized that the best way not to be unhappy is not to have a word for it. — Douglas Adams

Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By James S.A. Corey

It's always been like this, he thinks. From when Moses saw the promised land that he could never enter, people have been on their deathbeds just wanting to see what happens next.

Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By Tiana Dalichov

For many people, life is full of pain, suffering. It doesn't consist of clear blue skies or fresh green grass that's always greener on the other side. It's filled with hardships, grief, betrayal, and death.
These things define the human condition.
They define the sort of person an individual grows up to be, once those tribulations have, for the most part, ended.
But what truly defines you isn't the fact that you have seen death, known the feeling of betrayal by someone you trust, or watched as something you loved was ripped out of your hands.
What truly defines you is the way you reacted. — Tiana Dalichov

Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By Billy Graham

Some people have a warped idea of living the Christian life. Seeing talented, successful Christians, they attempt to imitate them.

They have forgotten that they are here to serve Christ, not themselves. — Billy Graham

Grass Not Always Greener Quotes By Gilles Marini
