Hall of Fame

For some reason that is beyond me i can't get this song out of my head, i rather like it!

To have succeeded

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 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. 

- Ralph Waldo Emerson -
