I love you for what you are, but I love you
yet more for what you are going to be.
I love you not so much for your realities
as for your ideals.

rather than for your satisfactions,
which may be so hazardously little.
You are going forward toward something great.
I am on the way with you,
and therefore I love you.
-- Carl Sandburg
