Gratitude is the way to happiness.

A human being has a natural desire to have more of a good thing than they need.

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.

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

If you have overcome your inclination and not been overcome by it, you have reason to rejoice.

I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.

The world would be happier if men had the same capacity to be silent that they have to speak.

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

What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?

It’s better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.

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.

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

Hope itself is a species of happiness, and, perhaps, the chief happiness which this world affords; but, like all other pleasures immoderately enjoyed, the excesses of hope must be expiated by pain.
