Doctor Strong's was an excellent school; as different from Mr Creakle's as good is from evil. It was very gravely and decorously ordered, and on a sound system; with an appeal, in everything, to the honour and good faith of the boys, and an avowed intention to rely on their possession of those qualities unless they proved themselves unworthy of it, which worked wonders. Charles Dickens (in David Copperfield)
Brightening people's lives, giving them some comfort and delivering with a light touch would be a nice legacy too, but I'm still the guy singing harmony, washing dishes with my mum. Neil Finn (answering the question about how he'd like to be remembered in Mojo magazine #367)
