I think a child may be the only thing that could give me true happiness.

Happiness is a light, an atmosphere, an illumination. It sets a personality. I always feel that it is a creation that is difficult for some and easy for others, but essentially an achievement, never an accident.

I say to my children, the reason that marriage - and having children - is so important is that it stops you thinking about yourself. The way to happiness is to give yourself to others and to think of others before you think of yourself.

The happiness I feel in having a family has brought me a real beauty.

For women, the important ingredients for happiness are to forge an identity, serve the Lord, get an education, develop your talents, serve your family, and, if possible, to have a family of your own.

I had a happy marriage and a nice wife. I accomplished everything you can. What more can you want?

Happiness: a good bank account, a good cook, and a good digestion.

The things that make me happy most are my family and working.
