The secret of happiness is this: let your interests be as wide as possible, and let your reactions to the things and persons that interest you be as far as possible friendly rather than hostile.  Bertrand Russell quotes Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose. Helen Keller quotes The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself. Benjamin Franklin quotes The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth. To make a goal of comfort or happiness has never appealed to me; a system of ethics built on this basis would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle. Albert Einstein quotes If what Proust says is true, that happiness is the absence of fever, then I will never know happiness. For I am possessed by a fever for knowledge, experience, and creation. Anais Nin quotes Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives. C.S. Lewis quotes Remember happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have; it depends solely on what you think. Dale Carnegie quotes One ought to seek out virtue for its own sake, without being influenced by fear or hope, or by any external influence. Moreover, that in that does happiness consist. Diogenes quotes You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them. Albert Camus quotes Happiness lies, first of all, in health.
