The first recipe for happiness is: Avoid too lengthy meditation on the past.
-André Maurois
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
-Mahatma Gandhi
No medicine cures what happiness cannot.
-Gabriel García Márquez
No one should ever ask themselves that: why am I unhappy? The question carries within it the virus that will destroy everything. If we ask that question, it means we want to find out what makes us happy. If what makes us happy is different from what we have now, then we must either change once and for all or stay as we are, feeling even more unhappy.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Zahir"

The difference between love and happiness is that those who talk about love tend to be in love, but those who talk about happiness tend to be not happy.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Nothing prevents happiness like the memory of happiness.
-André Gide
"L'immoralist"
Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
-Robert Frost
Why should we build our happiness on the opinions of others, when we can find it in our own hearts?
