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

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

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

Be more dedicated to making solid achievements than in running after swift but synthetic happiness.

Happiness is the reward we get for living to the highest right we know.

What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.

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

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

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

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