Happiness is dependent on self-discipline. We are the biggest obstacles to our own happiness. It is much easier to do battle with society and with others than to fight our own nature.
To be obliged to beg our daily happiness from others bespeaks a more lamentable poverty than that of him who begs his daily bread.
We are long before we are convinced that happiness is never to be found and each believes it possessed by others to keep alive the hope of obtaining it for himself.
Caring about others running the risk of feeling and leaving an impact on people brings happiness.
The most worth-while thing is to try to put happiness into the lives of others.
Work and live to serve others to leave the world a little better than you found it and garner for yourself as much peace of mind as you can. This is happiness.
My creed is that: Happiness is the only good. The place to be happy is here. The time to be happy is now. The way to be happy is to make others so.
If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others we could have a paradise in a few years.
An effort made for the happiness of others lifts above ourselves.
If you want others to be happy practice compassion. If you want to be happy practice compassion.
