It is the chiefest point of happiness that a man is willing to be what he is.

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us.

To describe happiness is to diminish it.

Our happiness depends on wisdom all the way.

Happiness includes chiefly the idea of satisfaction after full honest effort. No one can possibly be satisfied and no one can be happy who feels that in some paramount affairs he failed to take up the challenge of life.

If you hope for happiness in the world, hope for it from God, and not from the world.

Desire is individual. Happiness is common.

One of the keys to happiness is a bad memory.

Happiness never lays its finger on its pulse.
