Be merry, because it confuses your enemies; happy, because it annoys them; cheerful, because it angers them; and joyful, because it kills them.

Love is your greatest asset, fear is your greatest liability, and joy is your greatest reward.

If your greatest wish is to be happy, you are clever; if it is to make others happy, you are virtuous; but if it is to make yourself and others happy, you are wise.

Marry your friend, and you will be reasonably happy. Marry your lover, and you will be abundantly happy. Marry your soulmate, and you will be infinitely happy.

Your clock cannot buy you more time, your bed cannot get you more sleep, your titles cannot acquire you more influence, your fame cannot gain you more honor, and your money cannot earn you more happiness.

If there is wisdom in your mind, prove it; joy in your heart, share it; love in your soul, show it; good in your life, impart it.

A smile is worth dozens of words, but a kiss is worth a thousand.

No one can steal your happiness unless you give them the key to your heart’s safe.

Be happy when you work, thankful when you earn, cautious when you spend, shrewd when you save, and charitable when you give.
