People who fight fire with fire usually end up with ashes.

We should be careful and discriminating in all the advice we give. We should be especially careful in giving advice that we would not think of following ourselves. Most of all, we ought to avoid giving counsel which we don't follow when it damages those who take us at our word.

Had I been present at the creation, I would have given some useful hints for the better ordering of the universe.

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;

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.
