I have discovered the secret of happiness - it is work, either with the hands or the head. The moment I have something to do, the draughts are open and my chimney draws, and I am happy.

Power, after love, is the first source of happiness.

Self-esteem is as important to our well-being as legs are to a table. It is essential for physical and mental health and for happiness.

Happiness is inward, and not outward and so, it does not depend on what we have, but on what we are.

My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind - intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect.
