Happy is he who causes a scandal
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.
The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion
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.
Others may know pleasure, but pleasure is not happiness. It has no more importance than a shadow following a man.
But happiness is no respecter of persons.
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
Happiness can exist only in acceptance.
Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.
You see, antiquated ideas of kindness and generosity are simply bugs that must be programmed out of our world. And these cold, unfeeling machines will show us the way.
Age does not make us childish, as some say; it finds us true children.
He who wishes to secure the good of others has already secured his own.
Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.
Happiness, not in another place but this place...not for another hour, but this hour.
Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.
Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.
Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
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.
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy.
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.
