Robert Louis Stevenson

"That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much."

"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant."

"Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind."

"Our business in life is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits."

"A friend is a gift you give yourself."

"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant."

"Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but of playing a poor hand well."

"To travel hopefully is better than to have arrived."

"Death, like a host, comes smiling to the door;Smiling, he greets us, on that tranquil shoreWhere neither piping bird nor peeping dawnDisturbs the eternal sleep,But in the stillness far withdrawnOur dreamless rest for evermore we keep."

"Nothing like a little judicious levity."

"Marriage: A friendship recognized by the police."

"There is only one difference between a long life and a good dinner: that, in the dinner, the sweets come last."

"You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving."
