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

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

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

Manifest plainness, Embrace simplicity, Reduce selfishness, Have few desires.

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

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

From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!

Happy is he who causes a scandal

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.

Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.

Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.

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

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

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.

If you deliberately set out to be less than you are capable, you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.

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

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

Those who are not looking for happiness are the most likely to find it, because those who are searching forget that the surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others.

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.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
