"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 to 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 patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
