Age does not make us childish, as some say; it finds us true children.

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

A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.

Everyone wants to be appreciated, so if you appreciate someone, don't keep it a secret.

No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.

The two enemies of human happiness are pain and boredom.

Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.

Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses.

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

Happiness seems to require a modicum of external prosperity.

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.

Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them. A masterly retreat is in itself a victory.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.

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

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

Happy is he who causes a scandal

Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude

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

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

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

All who would win joy, must share it; happiness was born a twin.
