I never admired another's fortune so much that I became dissatisfied with my own.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

Different men seek ... happiness in different ways and by different means.

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

I will not be afraid because I understand... And understanding is happiness.

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

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

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

God is a community of persons and He has created you in His image, not as an isolated individual, but as a person whom He has invited to a communal life with Himself and with the whole human family.

The lonely one offers his hand too quickly to whomever he encounters.

Be joyful because it is humanly possible.

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