Nobody is as powerful as we make them out to be.

Summary

This quote reminds us that our perception of someone's power is often exaggerated. Many times, we bestow upon individuals more influence and authority than they actually possess. It is a reminder not to be overwhelmed or intimidated by others' supposed power, as everyone is ultimately human and has limitations. It encourages us to critically assess others' abilities and remember that true power lies in our own beliefs, actions, and desires.
