Happiness is beneficial for the body, but it is grief that develops the powers of the mind.

Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude.

Some cause happiness wherever they go others whenever they go.

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

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

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

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

The smallest seed of faith is better than the largest fruit of happiness.

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

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
