Morality is not properly the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.

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.

Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses.

Happiness seems to require a modicum of external prosperity.

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.

He whose face gives no light, shall never become a star.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

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

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

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.

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

Happiness depends upon ourselves.

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

Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.

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

Beauty is the promise of happiness.

Cheerfulness is that quality which enables one to make others happy. It takes its origin half in personal goodness, and half in the belief of the personal goodness of others.

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

Remember happiness doesn't depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think

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