You are not here merely to make a living.
You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision,
with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world,
and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.


  ... Woodrow Wilson - 28th US President .
