When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us
When one door of happiness closes, another opens.
Happiness is like the mountain summit. It is sometimes hidden by clouds, but we know it is there.
Be happy. Talk happiness.
Happiness is attained through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
What if in my waking hours a sound should ring through the silent halls of hearing? ... Would the bow and string tension of life snap? Would the heart over weighted with sudden joy stop beating for very excess of happiness?
Your success & happiness lies in you.
Happiness is a state of mind, and depends very little on outward circumstances.
A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.
No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.
Happiness does not come from without, it comes from within
While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.
Your success and happiness lie in you. External conditions are the accidents of life, its outer trappings. The great, enduring realities are love of service. Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulty.
