If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong.

I will not be afraid because I understand... And understanding is happiness.

Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.

Remember happiness doesn't depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.

Happiness is the settling of the soul into its most appropriate spot.

Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.

It is of practical value to learn to like yourself. Since you must spend so much time with yourself you might as well get some satisfaction out of the relationship.

Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

Recommend to your children virtues, that alone can make them happy, not gold.

If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.

A man is never as big as when he is on his knees to help a child.

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

But happiness is no respecter of persons.

The person who seeks all their applause from outside has their happiness in another's keeping .

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.

True happiness...is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

The two enemies of human happiness are pain and boredom.

Happiness can exist only in acceptance.
