It is not the place, nor the condition, but the mind alone that can make anyone happy or miserable. Roger L'Estrange Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need. He is rich who owes nothing. Hungarian Proberb Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
Many persons have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness.
It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose. Many search for happiness as we look for a hat we wear on our heads. Nikolaus Lenus Remember that happiness is as contagious as gloom. It should be the first duty of those who are happy to let others know of their gladness. Maurice Materlinck Ask yourself whether you are happy and you cease to be so.
