Goodness
When I was young, my ambition was to be one of the people who made a difference in this world. My hope is to leave the world a little better for having been there.

No man deserves to be praised for his goodness, who has it not in his power to be wicked. Goodness without that power is generally nothing more than sloth, or an impotence of will.
