Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.

The secret to happiness is freedom... And the secret to freedom is courage.

Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.

Always leave something to wish for otherwise you will be miserable from your very happiness.

Do not speak of your happiness to one less fortunate than yourself.

The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

Happiness is not a reward - it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it is a result.

Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.

Don't wait around for other people to be happy for you. Any happiness you get you've got to make yourself.
