　　What is success?

　　By Ralph Waldo Emerson

　　What is success?

　　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 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 even one life has breathed easier because you have lived;

　　This is to have succeeded.

　　Help:

　　affection n. 喜爱

　　endure v. 忍受

　　betrayal n. 背叛
