The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but thought about it. Be aware of the thoughts you are thinking.

A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your steps as you walk the tightrope of life.

The best way to enjoy your own life is to stop comparing it to others.

Don’t promise when you are happy, don’t reply when you are angry, and don’t decide when you are sad.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Happiness is a direction, not a place.

Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response.

The secret of happiness is to count your blessings while others are adding up their troubles.

Children see magic because they look for it.

I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.

Happiness is not a goal…it’s a by-product of a life well lived.

The trick is to be grateful when your mood is high and graceful when it is low.

Now and then it’s good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.

Throw moderation to the winds, and the greatest pleasures bring the greatest pains.

In daily life we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy.

Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

Happiness held is the seed. Happiness shared is the flower.

For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keep out the joy.

What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful.
