Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.

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

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

Action may not always bring happiness but there is no happiness without action.

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

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

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 you postpone for the future it is something you design for the present.

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

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