The greatest wealth is contentment with a little.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and do good while they live,

To be content with what one has is the greatest and truest of riches.

After 'Versace' and 'American Horror Story,' if that was the end of the line, then I can go happy.

Instead of seeking to serve one another, we wrongly believe that there's one person out there who exists solely to make us happy.

Loving the One is critically important to finding happiness with your Two. And loving your Two is one of the best ways to love the One.

Given my view that tragedy is normal, I try to be happy unless something happens that makes me unhappy, rather than unhappy unless something makes me happy. Most people go through life waiting for something wonderful to happen to make them happy. My attitude is so long as nothing terrible is happening to us, we ought to be happy.

Sometimes when I watch my dog, I think about how good life can be, if we only lose ourselves in our stories. Lucy doesn't read self-help books about how to be a dog; she just IS a dog. All she wants to do is chase ducks and sticks and do other things that make both her and me happy. It makes me wonder if that was the intention for man, to chase sticks and ducks, to name animals, to create families, and to keep looking back at God to feed off his pleasure at our pleasure.

The more my heart is parked in a place of thanksgiving and rejoicing, the less room I have for grumpiness.

Those who move forward with a happy spirit will find that things always work out.

He who is happy in his hut is better than he who is miserable in his palace.

This may sound counter intuitive, but I deeply believe that the path to happiness in a relationship is not just about finding someone who you think is going to make you happy. Rather, the reverse is equally true; the path to happiness is about finding someone who you want to make happy, someone whose happiness is worth devoting yourself to.
