"To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the affection 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....to know even on life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
