It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.

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

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

Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

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.

No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.

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.

Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.

It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.

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

But happiness is no respecter of persons.

We were together. I forget the rest.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

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

To be happy, we must not be too concerned with others.

Happiness seems to require a modicum of external prosperity.

It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy.

It is the task of a good man to help those in misfortune.

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