No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.

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.

The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.

Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.

A happy life consists in tranquility of mind.

Happiness, not in another place but this place...not for another hour, but this hour.

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

For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

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.

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

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.

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.

We were together. I forget the rest.

To be happy you must have taken the measure of your powers, tasted the fruits of your passion, and learned your place in the world.

Everyone wants to be appreciated, so if you appreciate someone, don't keep it a secret.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.

Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude

Others may know pleasure, but pleasure is not happiness. It has no more importance than a shadow following a man.
