My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

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.

The lonely one offers his hand too quickly to whomever he encounters.

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

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

Happiness can exist only in acceptance.

We were together. I forget the rest.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Unless you make a daily effort to see the world as God sees it, you will never get beyond mere appearances.

Happiness: a good bank account, a good cook and a good digestion.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

Man's real life is happy, chiefly because he is ever expecting that it soon will be so.

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

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

The intention that man should be happy is not in the plan of Creation.

Should not the giver be thankful that the receiver received? Is not giving a need? Is not receiving, mercy?

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

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

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

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

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