These ten principles were first articultated by Ken Keith as a student at Harvard in the 60's. Since then, unbeknownst to him, they were quoted, circulated, and appropriated by countless people -- politicians and academies, civic and religious leaders, businesspeople, students and nonprofit organizations. They were taped to computers, monitors, refrigerator doors, and to the walls of Mother Teresa's children's home in Calcutta.

Ten principles for life and a short essay on each. For example: "What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway." "People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Help people anyway."
I really enjoyed these. Definitely worth a read. The book can be devoured in one short sitting, but I recoommend spreading it out so that the ideas can be digested a little more slowly.
