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

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

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

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

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

Always leave something to wish for otherwise you will be miserable from your very happiness.

People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.

The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it.

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

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