“He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much;
Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children;
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;
Who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it;
Who has left the world better than he found it,
Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul;
Who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had;
Whose life was an inspiration;
Whose memory a benediction.”
― Bessie Anderson Stanley, More Heart Throbs Volume Two in Prose and Verse Dear to the American People And by them contributed as a
Supplement to the original $10,000 Prize Book HEART THROBS

“Dare to Be

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!”

“Don't aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it
must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's
surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I
want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in
the long-run—in the long-run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it”

“Over the years, I have come to realize that the greatest trap in our life is not success, popularity, or power, but self-rejection. Success, popularity, and
power can indeed present a great temptation, but their seductive quality often comes from the way they are part of the much larger temptation to self-
rejection. When we have come to believe in the voices that call us worthless and unlovable, then success, popularity, and power are easily perceived as
attractive solutions. The real trap, however, is self-rejection. As soon as someone accuses me or criticizes me, as soon as I am rejected, left alone, or
abandoned, I find myself thinking, "Well, that proves once again that I am a nobody." ... [My dark side says,] I am no good... I deserve to be pushed
aside, forgotten, rejected, and abandoned. Self-rejection is the greatest enemy of the spiritual life because it contradicts the sacred voice that calls us the
"Beloved." Being the Beloved constitutes the core truth of our existence.”

“Before success comes in any man’s life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat, and, perhaps, some failure. When defeat overtakes a man, the

country has ever known told the author their greatest success came just one step beyond the point at which defeat had overtaken them.”

“Running isn't a sport for pretty boys...It's about the sweat in your hair and the blisters on your feet. Its the frozen spit on your chin and the nausea in
your gut. It's about throbbing calves and cramps at midnight that are strong enough to wake the dead. It's about getting out the door and running when
the rest of the world is only dreaming about having the passion that you need to live each and every day with. It's about being on a lonely road and
running like a champion even when there's not a single soul in sight to cheer you on. Running is all about having the desire to train and persevere until
every fiber in your legs, mind, and heart is turned to steel. And when you've finally forged hard enough, you will have become the best runner you can be.
And that's all that you can ask for.”

“You see the first thing we love is a scene. For love at first sight requires the very sign of its suddenness; and of all things, it is the scene which seems to
be seen best for the first time: a curtain parts and what had not yet ever been seen is devoured by the eyes: the scene consecrates the object I am going to
love. The context is the constellation of elements, harmoniously arranged that encompass the experience of the amorous subject...

Love at first sight is always spoken in the past tense. The scene is perfectly adapted to this temporal phenomenon: distinct, abrupt, framed, it is already a
memory (the nature of a photograph is not to represent but to memorialize)... this scene has all the magnificence of an accident: I cannot get over having
had this good fortune: to meet what matches my desire.

The gesture of the amorous embrace seems to fulfill, for a time, the subject's dream of total union with the loved being: The longing for consummation
with the other... In this moment, everything is suspended: time, law, prohibition: nothing is exhausted, nothing is wanted: all desires are abolished, for
they seem definitively fulfilled... A moment of affirmation; for a certain time, though a finite one, aderanged interval, something has been successful: I
have been fulfilled (all my desires abolished by the plenitude of their satisfaction).”

“You differ from a great man in only one respect: the great man was once a very little man, but he developed one important quality: he recognized the
smallness and narrowness of his thoughts and actions. Under the pressure of some task that meant a great deal to him, he learned to see how his
smallness, his pettiness endangered his happiness. In other words, a great man knows when and in what way he is a little man. A little man does not
know he is little and is afraid to know. He hides his pettiness and narrowness behind illusions of strength and greatness, someone else's strength and
greatness. He's proud of his great generals but not of himself. He admires an idea he has not had, not one he has had. The less he understands
something, the more firmly he believes in it. And the better he understands an idea, the less he believes in it.”
