“Success” By Ralph Waldo 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 to 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 Or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier Because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
