The real purpose of intelligent life is as follows ...

"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, professional colleagues, co-workers; 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
