Happiness... it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.

No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.

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

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

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

Happiness is mental harmony; unhappiness is mental inharmony.

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.

Happiness for a reason is just another form of misery because the reason can be taken away from us at any time.

For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

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.

Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of unhappiness.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

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

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.
