his quote.

being sucessfull means to me --->
to laugh a lot as often as i can ; finding the best in others ;
earning the respect of bright intelligent people and win
the attention- affection of children; earning the acknowledgment
of sincere critics and stand against the betrayal of wrong friends ;
admire beauty in all forms ; leaving this world as a little better place as you found it ;
whether thru a healthy child, a bit green garden arranged by yourself or
any other small contribution to the improvement of the society and the general public ;
knowing that at least one live of an other human was easier and happier, because you lived...that means 2 me: i lived this life not in vain!!
 
to be happy requires just a little and who is happy --> is a king!!!
