There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.
-Epictetus
Above all, let us never forget that an act of goodness is in itself an act of happiness. It is the flower of a long inner life of joy and contentment; it tells of peaceful hours and days on the sunniest heights of our soul.
Happiness is a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open.
-John Barrymore
Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.
-Ernest Hemingway
There is no end to craving. Hence, contentment alone is the best way to happiness. Stay content.
There is no limit to joy. Happiness has no end. When you are standing in love of God, every cell in your body jumps for joy. You breathe in and out with the entire universe. In this state, your life is fulfilled.
If your joy is derived from what society thinks of you, you're always going to be disappointed.
-Madonna
