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

What happens is not as important as how you react to what happens."
-- Epictetus,
Greek philosopher
