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

All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.

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

To find out what one is fitted to do, and to secure an opportunity to do it, is the key to happiness.

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.

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness, and only what is useless is pleasurable.

Some cause happiness wherever they go others whenever they go.

It is not in the pursuit of happiness that we find fulfillment, it is in the happiness of pursuit.

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