Man's real life is happy, chiefly because he is ever expecting that it soon will be so.

He who wishes to secure the good of others has already secured his own.

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

Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.

The purpose of our lives is to be happy.

Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.

Remember happiness doesn't depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think

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

True happiness...is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

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.

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

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

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.

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

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

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

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... it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.

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

I think the thing to do is to enjoy the ride while you're on it.
