Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.

Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.
-Bertrand Russell
The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satisfaction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary, because there's nothing to make it last.
-Nicholas Sparks
"Dear John"
Celebrate the happiness that friends are always giving, make every day a holiday and celebrate just living!
Happiness comes from the soul’s satisfaction, not from the vital’s or body’s satisfaction.
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be
-Marcel Pagnol
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.
It's like Tolstoy said. Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
-Steven Kloves
"The movie, “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban"
Strength is happiness. In weakness and cowardice there is no happiness.
Happiness isn’t something that depends on our surroundings… It’s something we make inside ourselves.
-Cornelia "Corrie" Ten Boom
