Happiness does not come from doing easy work but from the afterglow of satisfaction that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demanded our best.

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

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

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

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

The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.

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

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

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

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