It is high time that the ideal of success should be replaced by the ideal of service

The road to perdition has ever been accompanied by lip service to an ideal.

If A equal success, then the formula is A equals X plus Y and Z, with X being work, Y play, and Z keeping your mouth shut.

Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.

I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves - such an ethical basis I call more proper for a herd of swine. The ideals which have lighted me on my way and time after time given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Truth, Goodness, and Beauty.

Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.
