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

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

Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.

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

Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.

Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.

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

Do not speak of your happiness to one less fortunate than yourself.

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

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
