Happiness is a mystery like religion, and it should never be rationalized.

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.

Happiness can exist only in acceptance.

From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!

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

Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.

Different men seek ... happiness in different ways and by different means.

Be joyful because it is humanly possible.

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

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

The intention that man should be happy is not in the plan of Creation.

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.

Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

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.

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

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

To be happy you must have taken the measure of your powers, tasted the fruits of your passion, and learned your place in the world.

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

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.

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