Quote by Elbert Hubbard

The thing we fear we bring to pass.

The thing we fear we bring to pass.

Summary

This quote suggests that our fears can often become a self-fulfilling prophecy. When we are consumed by fear, our thoughts and actions may subconsciously steer us towards the very outcome we are afraid of. By constantly dwelling on our fears, we unintentionally create the circumstances that make our fears become a reality. Thus, the quote reminds us of the power of our thoughts and encourages us to focus on positive outcomes rather than succumbing to fear.

The true greatness of a nation is not measured by the vastne

The true greatness of a nation is not measured by the vastness of its territory, or by the multitude of its people, or by the profusion of its exports and imports; but by the extent to which it has contributed to the life and thought and progress of the world. A man's greatness is not estimated by the size of his body or of his purse; not by his family connections or social position, however high these may be. He may bulk large in public estimation today, but tomorrow he will be forgotten like a dream, and his very servants may secure a higher position and a name lasting possibly a little longer.A man's greatness is estimated by his influence, not over the votes and empty cheers of a changing and passing crowd, but by his abiding, inspiring influence in their bidden thoughts, upon their ways of thinking, and consequently of acting. That is why the Wycliffes, Shakespeares, Miltons, Newtons, Wesleys, and Gladstones of English history live, and will live, in everlasting memory, while lesser men are remembered only through them, and the crowd of demagogues, pretenders, and self-seekers are named, if ever named, only to point a moral, or adorn a tale.So with nations. A great nation is not one which, like Russia, has an enormous territory ; or, like China, has an enormous population. It is the nation which gives mankind new modes of thought, new ideals of life, new hopes, new aspirations; which lifts the world out of the rut, and sets it going on a cleaner and brighter road.
