What is success?
什么是成功？
To laugh often and love much,
笑口常开，爱心长存，
To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children;
赢得智者的尊重和孩子们的爱戴；
To earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends,
赢得真诚的认可，容忍损友的背叛；
To appreciate beauty;
欣赏一切美好，
To find the best in others,
发现别人的可爱，
To give oneself;
无私地奉献；
To leave the world a little better,
给世界增添光彩。
Whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
要么培育出健康的孩子，要么留下花园一块，或是改善社会条件；
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation,
尽情娱乐、笑得畅快，把欢乐的歌唱起来；
To know even one life has breathed easier;
甚至知道一个生命活得自在，
Because you have lived—
因为你的一路走来——
This is to have succeeded.
这就是成功的内涵。
