Words to Live By

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 better; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
