That man is a success –

who has lived well, laughed often and loved much;

who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children;

who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;

who leaves the world better than he found it;

who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it;

who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had.
