Leadership is an opportunity to serve. It is not a trumpet call to self- importance.

The secret of happiness is the determination to be happy always, rather than wait for outer circumstances to make one happy.

Happiness is reverence for all life.

I've've seen some people like this that no matter what happens they've got something cheerful to feel about it. It's not always easy, but if we do it as a deliberate sward of battle rather then thinking 'Well, I'm not really feeling that way and therefore I shouldn't say that I am'. No! Make yourself that way!

Laughter is a medicine you've got to use to drive away blues.

Happiness is NOW! It isn't tomorrow. It isn't yesterday. Happiness is like a morning glory: Yesterday's won't bloom again; tomorrow's hasn't opened yet. Only today's flower can be enjoyed today. Be happy this very moment, and you'll learn how to be happy always.

The greatest thing that will please God is that you maintain an attitude of unshakable joy.
