- "O homem de sucesso é o que viveu bem, riu muitas vezes e amou bastante; que conquistou o respeito dos homens inteligentes e o amor das crianças; que galgou uma posição respeitada e cumpriu suas tarefas; que deixou este mundo melhor do que encontrou, ao contribuir com uma flor mais bonita, um poema perfeito ou uma alma resgatada; que jamais deixou de apreciar a beleza do mundo ou falhou em expressá-la; que buscou o melhor nos outros e deu o melhor de si."
