Happiness depends upon ourselves.

Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.

Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

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

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of unhappiness.

Money can't buy you happiness but it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery.

Be joyful because it is humanly possible.

Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses.

You don't have to be famous. You just have to make your mother and father proud of you.

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

Happiness... it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.

Happiness is an expression of the soul in considered actions.

Happiness is a mystery like religion, and it should never be rationalized.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.

Everyone has an invisible sign hanging from their neck saying, 'Make me feel important.' Never forget this message when working with people.

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

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