At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities.

Sorrow prepares you for joy.

Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full resources that are within thy reach.

It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.

A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.

To be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness.

Heroism is accessible. Happiness is more difficult.

Actions are right in proportion as they promote happiness, wrong as the produce the reverse.

The man who pursues happiness wisely will aim at the possession of a number of subsidiary interests in addition to those central ones upon which his life is built.

Every heart that has beat strong and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.

Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.

Cherish all your happy moments; they make a fine cushion for old age.
