Quote by The Talmud

The burden is equal to the horse's strength.

Summary

This quote suggests that the ability to bear a burden is determined by the strength of the individual or entity carrying it. It implies that one's capacity to handle responsibilities or challenges depends on their own capabilities. Just as a horse can only carry a load that matches its strength, an individual can only handle tasks or difficulties that align with their abilities. It emphasizes the importance of realistically assessing one's capabilities and not taking on more than they can handle.
