The distinction that lies in being unhappy (as if to feel happy were a sign of shallowness, lack of ambition, ordinariness) is so great that when someone says, "But how happy you must be!" we usually protest.

I'm mortified to be on the stage, but then again, it's the only place where I'm happy.

You can't be happy by doing something groovy.

Happiness is not on my list of priorities. I just deal with day-to-day things. If I'm happy, I'm happy - and if I'm not, I don't know the difference... Knowing that you are the person you were put on this earth to be - that's much more important than just being happy.

Give a man health and a course to steer, and he'll never stop to trouble about whether he's happy or not.

Life laughs at you when you are unhappy; Life smiles at you when you are happy; But life salutes you when you make other happy.
