Quote by Aristotle

We can do noble acts without ruling the earth and sea

We can do noble acts without ruling the earth and sea

Summary

This quote emphasizes that one does not need to hold power or authority over large domains in order to engage in noble acts. Being in a position of power or having control over vast territories is not a prerequisite for doing good deeds or making a positive impact in the world. It implies that ordinary individuals, with their everyday actions and choices, have the potential to enact noble deeds and make a difference in the lives of others, irrespective of their influence or control over the external world.

In 1736 I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old, by the small-pox, taken in the common way. I long regretted bitterly, and still regret that I had not given it to him by inoculation. This I mention for the sake of parents who omit that operation, on the supposition that they should never forgive themselves if a child died under it; my example showing that the regret may be the same either way, and that, therefore, the safer should be chosen.

This is the most profound spiritual truth I know: that even when we're most sure that love can't conquer all, it seems to anyway. It goes down into the rat hole with us, in the guise of our friends, and there it swells and comforts. It gives us second winds, third winds, hundredth winds. ...your spirits don't rise until you get way down. Maybe it's because this - the mud, the bottom - is where it all rises from. ...when someone enters that valley with you, that mud, it somehow saves you again.
