“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

“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!”

“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of
falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which
tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”

“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”
