Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one - keep from telling their happiness to the unhappy.

The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not.

The good life as I conceive it is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy - I mean that if you are happy you will be good.

Live your life. Be happy as you can be, let go of the things that don't matter, and fight.

It seems it has been my fate to sadden those I should have made happy.

I've decided to be happy because it's good for my health.

Every person should decide for himself how happy, or unhappy, our society might be.

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.
