成功的定義 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 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.
成功就是經常開心的笑；成功就是得到智者的尊敬和孩子們的愛戴；贏得真誠批評家的欣賞和能夠忍受虛偽朋友的背叛；能夠欣賞美，欣賞其他人的長處；成功就是通過留下有一個健康的孩子，或者留下一個修整的花園或者留下更好一點的社會環境，讓這個世界變得更好一下；成功就是知道至少有一個生命因為您而生活更輕鬆；- 這就是成功的意義。
