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 patch… to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
—commonly but inaccurately attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson
经常笑，多赢得聪明人的尊敬和孩子的喜爱，赢得诚实的批评家的欣赏，忍受假朋友的背叛，欣赏美，发现别人的优点，让世界变得更好，不管是健康的孩子，还是胆小鬼。即使是一个生命也因为你活着而变得更容易呼吸。这是成功的！
