Happiness is within. It has nothing to do with how much applause you get or how many people praise you. Happiness comes when you believe that you have done something truly meaningful.

Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.

Love is not a feeling of happiness. Love is a willingness to sacrifice.

Character is the basis of happiness and happiness the sanction of character.

Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
