Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.

It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.

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

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

Learn to value yourself, which means: fight for your happiness.

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

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

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

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.

There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

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

Money can't buy you happiness but it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking.

But happiness is no respecter of persons.

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

If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.

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

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

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.

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
