"It's not a matter of whether you want happiness. We all need peace, love, and happiness. But, if you fail to nurture your spirit, by absorbing all things good and giving attention to the matters of your heart, it will be hard to obtain. It must radiate from inside of you. Then, flow outwardly penetrating everyone around you."

"Do not allow your happiness to be controlled by the thoughts of others. People are happy for you one minute and then the next they are looking down their noses at you. You have to find within yourself the kind of happiness that withstands the ups and downs of life. No one should have the power to limit or repress your happiness."

"Happy people is a great hope to all the unhappy people because a path of success can always be used by the people who couldn't find such a path yet!"

"You will meet happiness on your way if you just stop looking for happiness desperately! Live your life without looking for anything!"

"It is a fact that one man can be deliriously happy in the exact situation that causes another man to wither from depression."
