Quote by Dizzy Dean

It ain't braggin' if you can back it up.

It ain't braggin' if you can back it up.

Summary

This quote implies that self-confidence and self-praise are justified if they are supported by actual achievements and abilities. It suggests that merely expressing confidence in oneself or bragging without any substance to support it is empty and baseless. However, if one's accomplishments and skills align with their self-assured claims, it can be considered a legitimate expression of confidence. In essence, actions speak louder than words, and true confidence is demonstrated through tangible proof of one's capabilities.

Uncertainty is a temptress. We may try our best to avoid her. But what is certain is that at some point of time, she will find us.
