A man is never as big as when he is on his knees to help a child.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

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.

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

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

We were together. I forget the rest.

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: a good bank account, a good cook and a good digestion.

I have been very happy, very rich, very beautiful much adulated, very famous and very unhappy

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

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.

Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon 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.

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

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

The two enemies of human happiness are pain and boredom.

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

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

You see, antiquated ideas of kindness and generosity are simply bugs that must be programmed out of our world. And these cold, unfeeling machines will show us the way.

Happiness is the settling of the soul into its most appropriate spot.
