As a teacher, artist and as a human, this is perhaps one of my favourite poems of all time: "To laugh often and much;
 to win the respect of the 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 that one life has breathed easier 
 because you lived here.
 This is to have succeeded. " (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
