The seed of suffering in you may be strong, but don’t wait until you have no more suffering before allowing yourself to be happy.
It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary.
When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him. In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
Drink wine. This is life eternal. This is all that youth will give you. It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
Give out what you most want to come back.
Find a place inside where there’s joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.
Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.
Happiness is a state of activity.
I never did a day's work in my life, it was all fun.
I don’t sing because I’m happy; I’m happy because I sing.
Better to be the one who smiled than the one who didn't smile back.
When you see your happiness in the happiness of others, that’s when you will be truly happy.
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.
There is only one success – to be able to spend your life in your own way.
Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.
Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life.
