Those with indomitable spirit are the real successes in life. If you can so train or condition your mind that you are content regardless of what you have or do not have, and if you can stand the challenge of all your trials and remain calm, that is true happiness.
If you search the world for happiness, you may find it in the end, for the world is round and will lead you back to your door.
-Robert Brault
Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen and six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds and six, result misery.
-Charles Dickens
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
-Deep Trivedi
You cannot be with someone just because you don’t want to hurt him. You have your own happiness to think about.

We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world.
