The necessary thing for anyone to be happy and contented as long as he lives is working for the ones who will come after him rather than working for himself... One can reach the true delight and happiness in the life only by working for the existence, honor, and happiness of the future generations.

Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.

Happiness is secured through virtue; it is a good attained by man's own will.

Being happy is of the utmost importance. Success in anything is through happiness.

Happiness includes chiefly the idea of satisfaction after full honest effort. No one can possibly be satisfied and no one can be happy who feels that in some paramount affairs he failed to take up the challenge of life.

The secret of happiness is to admire without desiring. And that is not happiness.

Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible.

Happiness is only attained by the free will agreeing in its freedom to accord with the will of God.

To be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness.

I think perfect happiness has everything to do with learning to be content with what I have.
