“Show your happiness to those who cannot stand you. Your happiness, will destroy them.”

“Know how to replace in your heart, by the happiness of those you love, the happiness that may be wanting to yourself”

“If you love someone, then set them free. Don't shackle your loved one to your will. If you want to see them happy, let them do what they want. Because we cannot bind the hearts and minds of others. Like birds, only freedom and independence will make humans happy.”

“Notice the people
who
are happy for your happiness
and
sad for your sadness.
They
are
the
ones
who deserve a special place
in your heart.”

“You’re the secret to change your life, you’re the key to your own happiness. It's not the happy people who are thankful, it’s the thankful people who are happy.”

“The way to find out about your happiness is to keep your mind on those moments when you feel most happy, when you really are happy-not excited, not just thrilled, but deeply happy. This requires a little bit of self analysis. What is it that makes you happy? Stay with it, no matter what people tell you. This is what I call "following your bliss."”

“Choose a community to live in whose efforts lie in the same direction as your own and where there will be interest in your activities. Instead of living in conflict with your family, who in your opinion do not understand you, and in the conflict destroying your happiness and that of others, seek out friends who think as you do. If you are religious, live among believers; if you are a revolutionary, live among your own kind. You can still try to convince the skeptical, and in this you will have the support of those who are in agreement with you.”

“There's nothing happy about having your fate decided for you! You have to grab your own happiness!”

“True friends are those who are happy to see you happy.”

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”
