To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and
the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little bit better; whether by a healthy
child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even
one life breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
