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

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

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

There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.

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

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

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

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

Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.

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