To laugh often and love much;
 To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children;
 To earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false
    friends;
 To appreciate beauty;
 To find the best in others;
 To give of one's self;
 To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch
 or a redeemed social condition;
 To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation;
 To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived -
 This is to have succeeded.

                                                    -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
