Question: What is the measure of a good life?

Bill George: Well I think the measure of a good life is knowing what you believe, being true to that, and having close family relationships that can . . . those belief sets and those . . . can be passed on through the generations; and watching others flourish with whom you come in contact; and feeling like that each day that you're encountering and dealing with people, you're helping make their lives a little bit better, just like they're making your life a little bit better; and that you leave something behind in terms of a sense of permanence in making a difference.
