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

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

Remember happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have it depends solely on what you think.

Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 percent of all your happiness or misery.

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

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

I do believe that if you haven't learnt about sadness, you cannot appreciate happiness.

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

Happiness is not a reward - it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it is a result.

It is not in the pursuit of happiness that we find fulfillment, it is in the happiness of pursuit.
