Happiness is your own treasure because it lies within you.

My creed is that: Happiness is the only good. The place to be happy is here. The time to be happy is now. The way to be happy is to make others so.

I've learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances.

To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness, and only what is useless is pleasurable.
