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.

All who joy would win must share it. Happiness was born a Twin.

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

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

You know it's love when all you want is that person to be happy, even if you're not part of their happiness.

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

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

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

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.
