Happiness depends upon ourselves.

Happiness is mental harmony; unhappiness is mental inharmony.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

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

The purpose of our lives is to be happy.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Cheerfulness is that quality which enables one to make others happy. It takes its origin half in personal goodness, and half in the belief of the personal goodness of others.

Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.

There is no path to happiness: happiness is the path.

Children are happy because they don't have a file in their minds called 'All the Things That Could Go Wrong.

If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong.

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

Be joyful because it is humanly possible.

A happy life consists in tranquility of mind.

Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.

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

Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.

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

It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.

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.

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