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

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

Happiness is not an ideal of reason, but of imagination.

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

Happiness is like a kiss. You must share it to enjoy it.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

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