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

Happiness depends more on how life strikes you than on what happens.

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

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

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

The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it.

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

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

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

Happiness is like a kiss. You must share it to enjoy it.
