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 bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden path, or a redeemed social condition; | |
to know even one life breathes easier because you have lived: this is to have succeeded. | |
— Ralph Waldo Emerson | |
