If you want to be happy, be.
Be bad, but at least don’t be a liar, a deceiver!
Every lie is a poison; there are no harmless lies. Only the truth is safe. Only the truth gives me consolation – it is the one unbreakable diamond.
Love those you hate you.
When you love someone, you love the person as they are, and not as you’d like them to be.
And you know, there’s less charm in life when you think about death–but it’s more peaceful.
I think… if it is true that there are as many minds as there are heads, then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts.
Happy is harder than money. Anyone who thinks money will make them happy, doesn’t have money.
If you’re going to be able to look back on something and laugh about it, you might as well laugh about it now.
The secret of happiness? Live life in the slow lane.
You have no more right to consume happiness without producing it, than you do to consume wealth without producing it.
The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.
If you let go a little you will have a little happiness. If you let go completely you will be free.
The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved – loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.
Choose happiness, not success, as your life’s goal. If you become successful but aren’t happy, then what is the point?
A lifetime of happiness? No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth.
To fill the hour – that is happiness.
But you know, happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them.
My number one daily habit is to give myself permission to be happy. It’s physical and mental; it’s my diet, physical activity, and emotional state. That’s all tied together.
The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
