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.

Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything—anger, anxiety, or possessions—we cannot be free.

Don’t worry about what the world needs.  Ask what makes you come alive and do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

Perfectionism is the enemy of creation, as extreme self-solitude is the enemy of well-being.

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

If pleasures are greatest in anticipation, just remember that this is also true of troubles.

Joy comes not through possession or ownership but through a wise and loving heart.

The secret of joy is the mastery of pain.

Happiness is really a deep harmonious inner satisfaction and approval.

In seeking happiness for others, you find it for yourself.

The journey is the reward.

Happiness depends upon ourselves.

The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.

Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.

Most of our troubles are due to our passionate desire for and attachment to things that we misapprehend as enduring entities.

There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way.

Enthusiasm is contagious. You can start an epidemic.
