MERELY SUCCESSFUL MERELY SUCCESSFUL
"To laugh often and love much;
to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn the approbation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty;
to find the best in others;
to give 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

Some men's lives are too great and noble
to descend to the low level of being merely successful.
