To live content with small means;
to seek elegance rather than luxury,
and refinement rather than fashion;
to be worthy, not respectable; and
wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think
quietly, talk gently, act frankly...to
listen to stars and buds, to babes and
sages, with open heart; await occasions,
hurry never...this is my symphony.
-- William Henry Channing
I like that quote a lot! I had to look up worthy after reading it - "the value of something measured by its qualities or by the esteem in which it is held".
