Happiness is not something that just comes to you. It's an active process.

Happiness is a by-product. You cannot pursue it by itself.

Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it is greatness.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Try to put your happiness before anyone else's, because you may never have done so in your entire life, if you really think about it, if you are really honest with yourself.

See to do good, and you will find that happiness will run after you.

Happiness depends more on how life strikes you than on what happens.

You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace.

Whether happiness may come or not, one should try and prepare one's self to do without it.

I have found that the only thing that does bring you happiness is doing something good for somebody who is incapable of doing it for themselves.
