With a genuine keenness or readiness to serve others, one can attain happiness in any group or community, and the eagerness to serve others will endow you with the power and skill necessary for the required service. Nowadays, we tend to regard it as derogatory to serve, but there is great worth in service.
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.
-J. M. Barrie
There is joy in work. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
-Henry Ford
I never understood the point of being sad when I could choose to be happy.
-Megan McCafferty
"Second Helpings"
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
-William Saroyan
"My Heart's in the Highlands"
Doing good to others is not a duty. It is a joy, for it increases your own health and happiness.
Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.
-Albert Schweitzer
Unhappiness is bondage; therefore, happiness is freedom.
-Lauren Oliver
"Delirium"
There is a difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks himself the happiest man is really so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool.
-Francis Bacon
To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
-Deep Trivedi
