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

Happiness is mental harmony; unhappiness is mental inharmony.

It is the task of a good man to help those in misfortune.

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

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

You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.

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.

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

If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.

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

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.

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

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

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

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

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

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

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

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.

If you deliberately set out to be less than you are capable, you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.
