1. Happiness does not mean causing even a small amount of pain to others, but means directly contributing to the joy and happiness of others. It seems to me that it can be most succinctly expressed in this respect as follows: Happiness consists in refraining from evil, in forgiving, and in loving others. ——Leo Tolstoy

2. Happiness is not strangled by huge disasters or fatal mistakes, but broken down little by little by repeated small mistakes. ——Ernest Timnit

3. People who learn to learn are very happy people. ——Menander

4. Love and kindness are truth and happiness, and they are the real existence and the only possible happiness in the world. ——Leo Tolstoy

5. Being loved by others is the same happiness as loving others, and once you get it, it will be enough for a lifetime. ——Leo Tolstoy

6. A happy life must be a quiet life to a large extent, because true happiness can only exist in a quiet atmosphere. ——Russell

7. There is a reliable way to get happiness, which is to control your thoughts. Happiness does not depend on external circumstances, but on internal circumstances.

——Carnegie
