    tx for asking, cool; I love to share Emerson. He is my favorite American philosopher, and for those who are newly exploring the topic,, he was Thoreau's mentor.

    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 that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

    ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
