QUOTE: Success, Emerson
"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; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
WHAT TO LEAVE BEHIND
When we find fault wherever we go, it’s probably because we bring it with us.
THE FRIEND TO ALL
The friend of all is truth, no matter how unwelcome on arrival.
PLANT WHAT WILL BE HARVESTED
The information that we gather, but fail to use, dies and is buried; it is the information that we gather and use that takes root and forces us to grow with it.
THE DIVIDENDS THAT YOU CAN'T SPEND
Dividends don’t only come from owning stocks; the greatest dividends of all are received when we continue to give consideration to the feelings and rights of others.
SHARING ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT SECRETS
One of the happiest things that you can tell another is how happy they have made you.
Emotion
The degree of one's emotion varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts. The less you know the hotter you get.
