Quote by C.S. Lewis
Aim at Heaven and you will get Earth 'thrown in': aim at Earth and you will get neither.
Summary
This quote suggests that if one's ambitions and goals are focused on noble and higher ideals (symbolized by Heaven), they are more likely to achieve success in worldly pursuits (symbolized by Earth) as well. However, if one solely pursues worldly gains, they may end up with nothing. It emphasizes the importance of aiming for excellence and having a sense of purpose beyond materialistic desires, as it can lead to more fulfilling and balanced outcomes in life.
