I took this quotation from one of my Unit Books, “The Role Of The Executive”. I like it and want to share with everybody. It was told by John Gardner.

“Meaning; meaning is not something you stumble across, like the answer to a riddle or the prize in a treasure hunt. Meaning is something you build into your life. You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of experience of human kind as it is passed on to you, out of your own talent and understandings, out of the things you believe in, out of the things and people you love, out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice. The ingredients are there. You are the only one who can put thm together into the pattern taht will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you. If it does, then the particular balance of success or failure is of less account.”
