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.
But the happiest people are the ones who understand that good things occur when one allows them to.
-Danny Wallace
"Yes Man"
There are those who give with joy and that joy is their reward.
-Khalil Gibran
That happiness which comes after misery is all the more enjoyable; it is to one scorched in the sun that the shade of the tree gives exceptional relief.
No man is happy who does not think himself so.
-Marcus Aurelius
"Meditations"
Success should be measured by the yardstick of happiness; by your ability to remain in peaceful harmony with cosmic laws.
A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth.
-George Bernard Shaw
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"
I have wanted only one thing to make me happy. That thing is everything.
-Sebastian Horsley
I think happiness is what makes you pretty. Period. Happy people are beautiful. They become like a mirror and they reflect that happiness.
-Drew Barrymore
