Life Quote #34
“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 wether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you lived. This is to have succeeded.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Not in a critical way, or to show off my patience, but genuinely and usefully.” – Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

If we look long enough for what we want in life we are almost sure to find it, no matter what the objective maybe.” – George Matthew Adams
