If you want to be happy now, love now; if you want to be happy later, love later; but if you want to be happy always, love always.

When bitter, say little; when angry, say nothing; when happy, say much; when joyful, say all.

The less you want, the happier you are; the happier you are, the less you want.

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.

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

Looking on the bright side of life is better than looking on the dark side of despair.
