“What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.”

“What you do for yourself dies with you when you leave this world, what you do for others lives on forever.”

“What I do is temporary, but what I leave behind is forever.”

“More important than What is Behind you and what is Ahead of you is what is In you. Seek it. Centred in it, act and live.”

“Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.”

“What softer voice is hushed over the dead?
Athwart what brow is that dark mantle thrown?
What form leans sadly o'er the white death — bed,
In mockery of monumental stone,
The heavy heart heaving without a moan?”

“To find what you seek in the road of life,
the best proverb of all is that which says:
"Leave no stone unturned.”

“And yet the wiser mind
Mourns less for what age takes away
Than what it leaves behind.”

“What we leave behind in this life is the memory of who we were and what we did. An imprint, no more.”

“There's the life you live and the life you leave behind. but what you share with someone else - especially someone you love - that's not just how you bury your past. It's how you write you future.”
