but what is woven into the lives of others.

what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.
- Albert Pike
You give but little when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived,
this is to have succeeded.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
