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

Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 percent of all your happiness or misery.

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

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

Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.

It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.

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

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

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