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

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

Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of unhappiness.

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

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

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking.

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

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

It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.

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

We were together. I forget the rest.

No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.

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

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

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

The purpose of our lives is to be happy.

Everyone has an invisible sign hanging from their neck saying, 'Make me feel important.' Never forget this message when working with people.

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.

Everyone wants to be appreciated, so if you appreciate someone, don't keep it a secret.

Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.

Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.
