"The greater the obstacle, the more the glory in overcoming it" — Moliere

Happiness grows at our own firesides, and is not to be picked in strangers' gardens

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know

Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so

But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads?

While one finds company in himself and his pursuits, he cannot feel old, no matter what his years may be

Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants
