Rules for Happiness: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for. — Immanuel Kant

There are three ingredients to the good life; learning, earning, and yearning.

To be happy we need someone to love, something to do, and something to look forward to. I

The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.

Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.

One is happy once one knows the necessary ingredients of happiness: simple tastes, a certain degree of courage, self denial to a point, love of work, and above all, a clear conscience.

Happiness is pretty simple: someone to love, something to do, something to look forward to.

I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness. A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books , music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness. And then, on top of all that, you for a mate, and children, perhaps - what more can the heart of a man desire?

three of the things we want most — happiness, freedom, and peace of mind — are always attained when we give them to others.

The chief element of happiness is this: to want to be what you are.

Learn to love, enjoy and embrace what you have in the here and now. That's all you really need to be happy.

What really gives people meaning and happiness is a combination of four things: Control over what they're doing, progress in what they're pursuing, being connected with others, and being part of something they enjoy that's bigger than themselves.

Your happiness depends on three things, all of which are within your power: your will, your ideas concerning the events in which you are involved, and the use you make of your ideas.
