There is no duty we so underrate as the duty of being happy. By being happy we sow anonymous benefits upon the world.
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.
A really great talent finds its happiness in execution.
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The person born with a talent they are meant to use will find their greatest happiness in using it.
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.
Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.
But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.
