I think the key to happiness is allowing ourselves to not feel bad or guilty for feeling it and letting it be contagious. And to not be dependent on other people to create your own happiness.

You believe happiness to be derived from the place in which once you have been happy but in truth it is centered in ourselves.

Existence is a strange bargain. Life owes us little we owe it everything. The only true happiness comes from squandering ourselves for a purpose.

Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.

The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved loved for ourselves or rather in spite of ourselves.

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved loved for ourselves or rather loved in spite of ourselves.

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

An effort made for the happiness of others lifts above ourselves.

Happiness depends upon ourselves.

To me acting is the most logical way for people's neuroses to manifest themselves in this great need we all have to express ourselves.
