Laughter is an instant vacation.

Happiness consists more in the small conveniences of pleasures that occur every day, than in great pieces of good fortune that happen but seldom to a man in the course of his life.

Nowadays the world is becoming increasingly materialistic, and mankind is reaching toward the very zenith of external progress, driven by an insatiable desire for power and vast possessions. Yet by this vain striving for perfection in a world where everything is relative, they wander even further away from inward peace and happiness of the mind.

Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.

The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it.

The common denominator of happy and successful people is that they spend their time with other happy and successful people.

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

Sorrow prepares you for joy.

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

My pain may be the reason for somebody’s laugh. But my laugh must never be the reason for somebody’s pain.

Laughter is the tonic, the relief, the surcease for pain.

Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.
