What is success in life? Who are the truly successful? There are famous and powerful people who become pitiful figures in their old age. There are people who die alone, feeling empty and desolate inside. Just what is success? The English thinker Walter Pater (1839–94) wrote: “To burn always with this hard, gemlike flame, to maintain this ecstasy, is success in life.” The person who lives life fully, glowing with life’s energy, is the person who lives a successful life.
