Happiness is a choice. You can choose to be happy. There's going to be stress in life, but it's your choice whether you let it affect you or not.

If I have to apply five turns to the screw each day for the happiness of Argentina, I will do it.

I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.

The said truth is that it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.

Before the tribunal of nature, a man has no more right to life than a rattlesnake; he has no more right to liberty than any wild beast; his right to the pursuit of happiness is nothing but a license to maintain the struggle for existence, if he can find within himself the powers with which to do it.

Happiness, the feeling of positivity, really is the foundation of productivity.

We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery.

It gets better: there's a light at the end of the tunnel. It may take one day, it may take ten years. But one day, you will find happiness if you manifest it. Put that energy out, and it'll come back.

Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible.

Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them. A masterly retreat is in itself a victory.

Perfect happiness is a beautiful sunset, the giggle of a grandchild, the first snowfall. It's the little things that make happy moments, not the grand events. Joy comes in sips, not gulps.

Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.

People say that money is not the key to happiness, but I always figured if you have enough money, you can have a key made.

Money, if it does not bring you happiness, will at least help you be miserable in comfort.

Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like the violin.

I think most of us are raised with preconceived notions of the choices we're supposed to make. We waste so much time making decisions based on someone else's idea of our happiness - what will make you a good citizen or a good wife or daughter or actress. Nobody says, 'Just be happy - go be a cobbler or go live with goats.'

No one is perfect... absolutely no one. Like precious stones, we have a few flaws, but why focus on that? Focus on what you like about yourself, and that will bring you happiness and peace.

Happiness, I do not know where to turn to discover you on earth, in the air or the sky; yet I know you exist and are no futile dream.

I define my life around happiness, being safe, being able to enjoy life and live this life for a long time.

A man doesn't know what happiness is until he's married. By then, it's too late.

Honestly, just live your life to the fullest. Laugh a lot, love and find your true happiness.

To me, flowers are happiness.

Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it.
