Happiness

“Happiness quite unshared can scarcely be called happiness; it has no taste.” 

“It's been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will.” 

“Success is getting what you want, happiness is wanting what you get” 


“Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination.” 


“Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.” 


“I've got nothing to do today but smile.” 


“Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.” 



“People are just as happy as they make up their minds to be.” 

“It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.” 

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.” 

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” 

“The only way to find true happiness is to risk being completely cut open.”
