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

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

An effort made for the happiness of others lifts above ourselves.

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

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

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

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

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