While doing my daily scroll through Pinterest I came across a quote, the first quote on this list, and for some reason it stayed with me throughout the day. A little while later, my mom sent me another affirmation on happiness.
Since both inspired me, I decided to round of up a list of quotes on the subject. We could all use a little extra dose of happiness from time to time, especially with finals coming up. Stress, anxiety, and worry sometimes take over when we have a lot going on with school and work. So if you find yourself needing a little extra happiness, here are 15 quotes on happiness.
1. "To fall in love with yourself is the first secret to happiness." -Robert Morley
Love yourself!
2. When you can't find the sunshine... be the sunshine.
When life gives you lemons... you make lemonade!
3. It's the little things in life.
Remember to put down the phone, and enjoy a cup of coffee while spending some time appreciating the company you have present and the world around you.
4. "Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier." -Mother Teresa
Happiness is infectious. Pass it on to everyone you meet. Not only will you make their day better, you'll make yours better too!
5. Being happy is a very personal thing, and it really has nothing to do with anyone else.
Your happiness is your own. No one can take it away from you.
6. Don't be afraid of new beginnings, from new people, new energy, new surroundings, new challenges. Embrace new chances of happiness.
Happiness can come from unexpected places. Seize every opportunity that comes your way. They may not all be for you, but the important thing is that you learned something about yourself.

Choose joy a little more often!
8. "The key to being happy is knowing you have the power to choose what to accept and what to let go." -Dodinsky

What makes you happy? Dance? Music? Sports? Reading?

Your happiness doesn't depend on another person, or their idea of happiness. What does being happy mean to you?
