If something makes you happy in this world, you should think of what will happen to you if that thing were taken away.

The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.

We cannot be happy if we expect to live all the time at the highest peak of intensity. Happiness is not a matter of intensity, but of balance and order and rhythm and harmony.

We are never so happy nor so unhappy as we imagine.

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

Happiness is to take up the struggle in the midst of the raging storm and not to pluck the lute in the moonlight or recite poetry among the blossoms.

Talk happiness. The world is sad enough Without your woe. No path is wholly rough.

The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.

I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.

The secret of happiness is something to do.
