The face of a truly happy man seldom lacks smiles.

To be happy, you have to risk being unhappy.

Like love, like talent, like any other virtue, like anything else in this life, happiness needs to be nurtured - this is the truth of the whole matter.

Always be happy, you never know how happy you can make another by just being happy.

Happiness springs up from within. Do not seek it without.

80% of man's happiness is based on love - love for others, love for self, love for family, love for friends, love for work, love for nature, and love for being loved.

Happiness is in contentment, gratitude, and love. It is a lifestyle, not a location.

The commencement of true happiness is the realization that your happiness begins with you.

The peak of happiness is attained when a person has accepted to be what he is.

First seek happiness from within, then you will find it without.

Happiness does not completely depend on comforts or opulence. Even a pauper can be happier than a prince.

The government itself, which is only the mode which the people have chosen to execute their will, is equally liable to be abused and perverted before the people can act through it.

When happiness is liked by me and others equally, what is so special about me that I should strive after happiness only for myself?

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.

With practice and focus, you can extend yourself far more than you ever believed possible.

A politician is an animal which can sit on a fence and yet keep both ears to the ground.

We fritter away our energy and creativity . . . we get bogged down in the thick of thin things.

Being injured sucks. When you see all your buddies out there playing it's tough.

That is the conviction we must come to in our meditation, that the darkness cannot quench the light.

They're not just interested in one sort of music any more.
